Although I really haven't looked too deeply into where the '.' is coming
from as it comes from neither the /etc/profile or $HOME/.bash_profile
files, I have a very simple solution to remove the '.'
edit the /etc/profile file as such:
Current PATH statement should read as:
PATH=:$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin
Modify to read as:
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
That'll remove the '.' for all users.
