Multiple executables in path (Was: NON-SOURCE POSTINGS CONSIDERED HARMFUL!)

[Tom Christiansen]

>From the keyboard of kaul at icarus.eng.ohio-state.edu (Rich Kaul):
:Also, I should mention that none of the the above solutions work well
:with bash, where you can have a PATH with unexpanded ~ references in
:the PATH environment variable.  There are other tricks you have to
:play on that shell to get these scripts to work.

That's odd -- if you have unexpanded tildes in your environment,
I wonder how you get system, popen, and execlp to work without
changing the C library.
