The only way I've ever succeeded in getting an Athena csh to have
$path set but not $PATH is by "unsetenv PATH" and then not touching
$path (or the shell immediately puts $PATH back in the environment).
I think it's reasonable for users who do this to expect some
incompatibility (eg: every process they spawn from that shell will
have no path set at all).
