	Yesterday, I was logged in on a pvax (running 6.3B) in the
EECS cluster.  My .path file was not sourced.

	Today, I was logged in at my workstation (tabetha.mit.edu, a
pvax running 6.3B) and again, my .path file was not sourced.  My path
was the following:

qatshweepw% echo $path 
. /mit/lnp/vaxbin /srvd/patch /usr/athena /bin/athena /usr/bin/X
/usr/new /usr/n ew/mh/bin /usr/ucb /bin /usr/bin /usr/ibm


The following is my .path file

**directory - /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/l/lnp** 
qatshweepw% more .path 
set path = ($path /usr/bin/X11 /mit/sipb/${hosttype}bin /mit/clu/exe
~/scripts ~ /x/projects /mit/se01)

Sourcing my .path file by hand worked, but I should not have had to do
this.
