Is it intentional that athena_path and athena_manpath are no longer
defined in the average (xterm spawned) shell?
Their definition appears to have been moved inside the test: 
	if (! $?ENV_SET) then

After adding a bunch of lockers to do something I occasionally find
that I'd like to reset the path to my default, and having access to
these variables makes that possible.  Am I just a total outlier case
here?
