problem with PATH defined in .profile and environment.plist

Hello all,

I had specified a few environment variables in my ~/.MacOXS/ 
environment.plist and also adapted my PATH variable there to append my  
defined env variables.
This does somehow not work well with the "export PATH=..." that  
macports adds to the ~/.profile file.

I think I read somewhere that the environment.plist should be the  
place to define these kinds of things on Mac OS X.
I know I can add the things that macporst adds to the PATH in my  
environment.plist and comment out the "export PATH ..." in .profile  
but I guess this will be added again once macports updates itself?

Is there a way to make these two work together?

Thanks for any hints,

Philip
