That's what I found your configuration quite unusual.
When people have standard system executable directories such as
/usr/bin and /bin and private directories like /home/$u/bin and
/usr/local/bin on their PATH, private directories always come
before the system directories, so that things in the system
directories (often you do not have write permission to) can be
overriden by private directories (which is under your control).
I've never seen anybody sane to have system path before private
ones.
