Curious. Did the unit tests pass with this change?
In the original code, the strbuf starts out empty each time
system_path() is called, and strbuf_addf() populates it. After your
change, the strbuf starts empty only on the very first call, and
subsequent calls append more content rather than replacing it. At the
very least, to fix, you now need to invoke strbuf_reset() before
invoking strbuf_addf().

Not sure what this change is about. The last couple lines of this function are:
setenv("PATH", new_path.buf, 1);
strbuf_release(&new_path);
which means that the buffer held by the strbuf is being released
anyhow, whether static or not.
