$PATH in su mode under SV.2

[iannucci]

             I and my colleagues at work, where we run SV.2.2 on a 3B2, 
are being slowly driven out of our minds. The problem is that in su mode,
the PATH is set to :/usr/bin:/etc:/bin.  It doesn't even include the pwd!
This can get really maddening, and we've tried everything we can think of 
to reset that PATH. Nothing in /etc/profile seems to have any direct effect.

        If you can help me with this, please respond by mail, as I don't read
these groups often enough. My fingers have had it with typing 7 foot paths!
