Actually, you can do it either way:
regression=# set search_path TO a,b,c;
regression=# set search_path TO 'a','b','c';
although not
regression=# set search_path TO 'a,b,c';
ERROR: schema "a,b,c" does not exist
This is mainly for legacy reasons (the grammar involved was originally
used for DateStyle...). I don't object to documenting primarily the
first form, though.

Yeah; that page only documents SET items that are not in the main list
of run-time-configurable parameters.
