The second bit /usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current is  
unnecessary and may be harmful (in case you actually have a directory / 
usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current).

I wouldn't recommend putting /usr/local/bin first either. Things  
placed there would override those already in OS X, yielding  
unpredictable behaviour, unless you absolutely know what you're doing.

I've also no idea what the double // may yield.

I'd recommend identifying the configuration files responsible for  
putting /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin- 
current:/ at the start of your PATH, and erasing the corresponding  
instructions so as to get back to the OS X/MacTeX default:

/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin

Then see what happens with Xaw3d and gv.
