Either use a shell script which launches Carbon Emacs or  
translate .bash_profile's contents into Elisp à la:

	(setenv "PATH" (concat "/some/directory" path-separator (getenv  
"PATH")))

You can save some work by first investigating the value of process- 
environment.


A different method is composing a file ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist. It  
sets the environment for all processes at boot time. Read more here: http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1067.html
