I'm glad :-)

You actually came to the same analysis I came to, only I didn't trust 
myself.

Not really, as you will see below.

That didn't help, either. So I ran the commands manually. Here's where 
things get messed up:

bash-3.00# pwd
/Volumes/Datengrab/sw/src/fink.build/coreutils-5.96-5/coreutils-5.96/tests/rm
bash-3.00# setuidgid nobody which rm
csh: Can't start from current directory: Permission denied
csh: Trying to start from "/Users/hgd"
/bin/rm
bash-3.00#

So PATH doesn't get changed, but the shell refuses to use 
/Volumes/Datengrab/sw/src/fink.build/coreutils-5.96-5/coreutils-5.96/tests/rm/../../src/rm.

I'm not sure what can be done about that. For the time being I got around 
this by adding these lines to sources.list:

deb http://fink.sodan.ecc.u-tokyo.ac.jp/apt/10.4 ecc main crypto
deb http://fink.sodan.ecc.u-tokyo.ac.jp/apt/10.4 unstable main crypto

There's binary version of coreutils there ...

Thanks for your help, Sebastian
