Bug Description
On a just fully upgraded from 11.04 Oneiric beta the default user env PATH is

Just to note - this is only if using gdm instead of lightdm
I'd had a bug on this earlier, though I invalidated due to when doing a fresh install and switching from lightdm to gdm couldn't find loss of function (didn't fully test though

This may be an issue for people doing upgrades from 11.04 to 11.10 ..?
