My path is in the correct order, but I think the reason mine is fine  
is that I have been working in a virtual machine on my laptop, and  
just haven't logged out and in again for ages.  Thus my paths have  
been set for ages, and re-sourcing GNUstep.sh hasn't changed them as  
they already contain all the gnustep directories.

I'm pretty sure that the paths were broken by a change made to gnustep- 
make on October 21st, intended to improve the checking for directories  
already being present in the path, and avoid adding them again.
