On svn blfs page:

, in section '/etc/profile.d/extrapaths.sh' there is:
pathprepend ~/bin
, and in section '~/.bash_profile' there is:
append $HOME/bin
Also, that 'append()' function in '~/.bash_profile' looks like it would
prefix a ':' if starting PATH was either empty or equal to the dir that
one is trying to append.
The very first variable set in /etc/profile is
export PATH=/bin:/usr/bin
So if you are following the book, PATH will always be set. FBBG.
Yes, that construct is bash specific.
