I get "sh: Warning:: command not found" and it's trying to execute:

started applet, exec: '(true; Warning: ridiculously long PATH truncated)'

Long it may be, but it's also required (one login which must work on 8 
different platforms --- don't tell me about long PATHs)....

The applets aren't starting anyway, in my case.  They start if I run them from 
a shell, but not from the panel.  This is after correcting $DISPLAY because 
panel was using :0 and everything else was using :0.0.  (Solaris, naturally.  
sigh...)
