I did, but since then I found the problem was mine.  For emacs, I'd
changed (eons ago) the icewm toolbar to include:

   prog "emacs" "emacs" /bin/bash -c "/home/evansl/.icewm/env_emacs.sh"

Well, I hadn't looked closely until a while ago and noticed the
.sh at the end.  That's what set the PATH because it's contents are:

   #! /bin/sh
   source ~/.bash_env
   /usr/bin/emacs

and .bash_env does the actually setting.

Sorry for noise :(
