Turns out that, at least in my RH 6.2, there is something called
/etc/profile.d/ (presumably a profile daemon?) with a bunch of
configuration files.  The one causing the mischief was krb5.sh, a
configuration for the Kerberos V5 set of applications, all of which
install with a full 6.2 installation.  The path statement there, in
the usual format, was inserting /usr/kerberos in front of everything
else.

Now, on to fully understand the Kerberos apps.  This whole thing
started with an Ange-FTP problem in Emacs, which, turns out, was
caused by using the Kerberos ftp app...problem fixed by Sami :)
