That's the path all right.  I think the exe name is needed...

  CS_PATH The value of the PATH environment variable.

  PATH    The path through which the shell searches for a specified command.

  $ getconf PATH
  /bin:/usr/bin

  $ getconf CS_PATH
  /bin:/usr/bin

This should not be used for autoconf, however, because
someone may be configuring for a private environment.

  PATH=`getconf CS_PATH`

inside configure would make that rather difficult.  :)
