If a user has an empty file called ".path" in his or her home
directory, the "path" variable will never get set to athena_path, and
thus the user won't be able to use MH commands. The proper way to fix
this problem is to reconcile the paths used in athena_path with the
initial path set up by login, so that if athena_path is never used at
all the default path will be vaguely useful.
