Well, what I had in mind was getting bjam to implement my solution #1.
So bjam would scan my .profile to see if it had ever modified the file
previously, and if so modify previously set variables, otherwise add
new environmental variables, etc.

But what if the user isn't using bash, but tcsh? Or if they have a .bash_profile? Or if they source their .bashrc via their .profile and set their PYTHONPATH in there? There's a lot that could go wrong.

The second approach sounds much more robust and is the more conventional approach. Hopefully you can get it to do what you want.
