I guess MacPorts would have to check what shell you're using, and then know how to parse each type of shell's idea of how the list of paths is represented. The $PATH that goes into the environment must be colon separated, or a LOT of stuff will mishandle it. Including the likes of execlp()/execvp(). (Shells should handle this; after all, csh's $path is space separated / a csh list, but $PATH in the environment is correctly colon separated.)
/usr/bin/env shows PATH = to a colon delimited string So I am not sure that fish is the only thing wrong here Mark
