i have stuff set up like this in my .bashrc :

FOO_PATH=/blah/blah:/usr/blah/blah
BAR_PATH=/yadda/yadda:/usr/yadda/yadda:/usr/local/yadda/yadda
PATH=$FOO_PATH:$BAR_PATH

checked again, and i haven't forgotten to add any of the relevant
$TEX_STUFF.  however, just in case anyone was worried, i don't think
this is an emacs/auctex problem since i've discovered that i can no
longer compile latex files in console.  (this is on slackware linux 9)
things do work on an rxvt console in x, though.  problem must be
elsewhere.  thanks for your help, though.
