I think the actual number is more like 2.17, but let's not quibble.

Not found.

Still not found. However, adding it to ~/.tcshrc seems to fix the problem. That 
makes sense, but leaves two questions:

1) Why am I able to run pdflatex (without specifying the path) just from the 
shell running in a terminal window?

2) What's the point of defining the emacs exec-path, since I needed to define 
the shell's PATH variable anyway?
