Judging from the whole discussion, that sounds like a mildly screwed-up
system. $PATH should not get mangled that way too easily. $DEITY knows
what else is wrong with that machine.

Backup any important data that you may have; reinstall while formating
the drives, so you get a clean start. Don't do anything out of the
ordinary while installing - in fact, do one of the cookie-cutter
installs (server, workstation, etc.) instead of a custom install.

And maybe do all this with FC4 instead.
