No. Here are the full files, omitting comments and empty lines :

youngfrog@geodiff-mac3 ~ $ grep -vH '^#\|^$' .bashrc .bash_profile 
.bashrc:export PATH="~/bin/overrideglobal:${PATH}:~/bin"
.bashrc:if [[ $- != *i* ]] ; then
.bashrc:	# Shell is non-interactive.  Be done now!
.bashrc:	return
.bashrc:fi
.bashrc:UPDATEGITREPO="~/TeX/ ~/BSSM/2011/notes-de-conf/ ~/org/ ~/BSSM/2012"
.bashrc:export UPDATEGITREPO
.bashrc:alias ll="ls -lA"
.bashrc:alias l="ls -CF"
.bashrc:alias cp="cp -i"
.bashrc:alias rm="rm -i"
.bashrc:alias mv="mv -i"
.bash_profile:[[ -f ~/.bashrc ]] && . ~/.bashrc

Ok, I thought my original post contained it. In fact that was part of my
original post :

youngfrog@geodiff-mac3 ~ $ bash -c 'echo $PATH'
~/bin/overrideglobal:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.5.4:/usr/games/bin:/usr/local/texlive/2012/bin/i386-linux:~/bin

and I forgot to mention that it was the same as :
youngfrog@geodiff-mac3 ~ $ env | grep ^PATH
PATH=~/bin/overrideglobal:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.5.4:/usr/games/bin:/usr/local/texlive/2012/bin/i386-linux:~/bin

and yet the same as :
youngfrog@geodiff-mac3 ~ $ echo $PATH
~/bin/overrideglobal:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.5.4:/usr/games/bin:/usr/local/texlive/2012/bin/i386-linux:~/bin

Thanks for trying btw. I certainly did something really stupid to set
the path the first time, but can't see where.
