Our WindowMaker wrapper pollutes PATH in the entire X session |

We install a wrapper script around WindowMaker that prepends
/gnu/store/XXX-windowmaker-XXX/bin to $PATH. This setting is propagated
to all subprocesses in the entire X session, which is suboptimal. It
would be nice to find another solution, preferably by using absolute
pathnames when launching subprocesses run by WindowMaker.
