Are you using Fink? I added the following contribution recently to
<url: http://emacro.sf.net/ > for Mac users.

Hmm. I bet I can change the first line to simply
        (when (file-readable-p "/sw/bin")
as well as drop the defun declaration...

;;__________________________________________________________________________
;;;;            Fink Paths
(when (and (file-readable-p "/sw/bin") (file-exists-p "/sw/sbin"))
  (defvar shell-bin-path
    '("/sw/bin" "/sw/sbin")
    "The paths where fink binaries can be found")

  (defun fix-shell-paths nil
    (if (and (boundp 'exec-path) (listp exec-path))
        (setq exec-path (append shell-bin-path exec-path))
      (setq exec-path shell-bin-path)))

  (fix-shell-paths))
