It does. The problem is that Mac OS X windowing applications are not launched
from a shell. So these processes can't inherit what's not there.
PATH and MANPATH can be set up by putting small files containing the path to
the executables or the man directory into the directories /private/etc/paths.d
resp. /private/etc/manpaths.d. The name of the files should give some good hint
what they are about (I have for example "X11", "MacGPG2", "40-XQuartz", …).
These files plus /private/etc/paths resp. /private/etc/manpaths set up PATH
resp. MANPATH for processes launched by Mac OS X.
