X has been breaking environments this way for decades. You have two
choices:
1) Tell gnome-terminal that it needs to start a login shell, assuming
you can.
2) Move the setting of PYTHONPATH into a different startup file, one
that will be executed by all shells when they start.
Whatever you do, don't ask about .MacOSX/preferences.plist.
