I'll try again with a variable set to the same (quite unreasonably long :-)
length as yours...

Out of curiosity, and so I can try to reproduce your conditions as closely
as possilble, how many components add up to 1907 characters? And this is
just your USER PATH value, which is then appended to the all users PATH
value when running programs as your user...?

Thx,
David
