If so it has to go at the end - several tools install /sbin and non /sbin
versions of the same name.
Probably it should be the same as what root gets, or what you get with
'su -' which is /sbin ahead of /bin and /usr/sbin ahead of /usr/bin.
Otherwise won't it still be confusing if 'su' and 'su -' work
differently?
