If Ted's idea doesn't work the  I don't know what is going on.

If in Terminal you  do

which basename

does it say

/usr/bin/basename



Or if you do ls /usr/bin is there a basename in the resulting file
list ?


Have you installed anything else into the unix side of the mac ?
Fink by any chance ?
