Sure, but where is that set... You could do it in root's .bash* scripts, but
better here:
derek at othello:~$ egrep "^ENV_\w*PATH" /etc/login.defs
ENV_SUPATH \
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11
ENV_PATH PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games
