I don't think that's it. I don't have a ~/.profile file or point $ENV
to anything and ksh93 (standard on OS X, which I use) don't parse any
other startup files. The system /etc/profile only sets the $PATH. The
environment is inherited from my zsh session when I start up ksh, that's
about it, and it worked in ksh but not in zsh (does now, since I set
$GPG_TTY).

I'm wondering if there's some magic happening behind the scenes that I
don't know about. Maybe something in $FPATH gets triggered and does the
wrong thing?
