I miscommunicated here, by path i did'nt meant the PATH env variable.
By Path i meant any  string having some directories seperated by ":" , 
say it could be

FOO=E:\foo:D:\bar.

And yes it can be in the %ENV.

How about:

my @paths = split(/:(?!\\)/, $path;
Should be:

my @paths = split(/:(?!\\)/, $path);

It was Saturday, August 02, 2003 when Gupta, Sharad took the soap box, 
saying:
: : Hi,
: : I have a path which may look like:

  use Env [EMAIL PROTECTED];

  print "$_\n" foreach @PATH;

I love the Perl core.  :-)
