This #$^%^*$%¤ Solaris!!!!!!
Check this out, and tell me I shouldn't yell out at SUN:

root(at)ultra31 / # su - postgres -c 'echo $PATH'
/usr/bin:
root(at)ultra31 / # su - postgres
postgres(at)ultra31:~ > echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/gcc/bin:/usr/local/php/bin:/opt/sfw/bin:/usr/local/a2p/bin:/usr/local/sql/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:/dbs/postgres/bin:
postgres(at)ultra31:~ > logout
root(at)ultra31 / #

Can someone explain to why Solaris is doing that, and why did it start doing
it after an upgrade? I have no words.
