I looked through the code of TeXDocument::typeset() and indeed the
PATH should be searched as you describe even without explicitly adding
it. However, I just tested this (rev.295) and tools are found on PATH
*only* if binpaths setting in prefrences dialog is not empty (it can
be any junk, like temp dir). I have no idea why this happens, I don't
see anything in the code that could cause this.
