Hi,

After upgrading to latest git and applying Thomas patches to get the
forementioned branch filtering to work, both users with git-shell
as login shell and git:// refused to work.

git version 1.6.0.rc2.26.g0413

Git is compiled using make --prefix=/usr/local.  Both worked after

	* adding /usr/local/bin to $PATH in xinetd for git-daemon
	* adding a putenv("PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin") at
	the very start of main() in shell.c

This of course is merely a work-around :-(

	Cheers --- Jan
