No, his script is correct (to do it for all users).
I expect he is running the PATH= command twice - once from
/etc/profile.d, and maybe once in his personal .profile or .bash_profile
or .bashrc.
Some applications (IDE?) appear to source /etc/profile when starting,
which is why we have the pathmunge function. I think this is done so you
have the same PATH whether the app is run by clicking on a menu or by starting
it from a terminal.
