 This makes all the previous patches redundant, since the PATH=...
invocations should be removed instead of renamed.

 With this change, the := in BR_PATH becomes essential. There should be a
comment there to explain why. Also, the assignment to BR_PATH and to PATH
should be right next to each other (the export can stay here, though).

 And in fact, BR_PATH becomes completely redundant, it's sufficient to
have a single PATH := ....:$(PATH)
