$HOME/bin is not on every system and the other default directories in
default PATH are(at least on the most of systems ;) ). However, some
Linux distros do add something as:
# set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists
if [ -d "$HOME/bin" ] ; then
PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
fi
as default - so this dir gets added automatically when does exist.
I'm generally +1 for changing the default that way - as it would not
change anything for users without that directory.
