Brock Rozen suggested that init.d scripts should have explicit
PATH=... settings.  No-one commented on the idea.

In general, all programs which make assumptions about PATH containing
more that /bin and /usr/bin should probably explicitly set PATH; this
problem is not exclusive to /etc/init.d scripts.

So should we close this bug and put this requirement/suggestion into
the coding guidelines (which may, one day, be written)?
