M-x eshell
switch to other buffer 
use (setenv "PATH"  "some path") to set new PATH env var
enter eshell with C-u 2 eshell   (there is already one eshell buffer running)
  a new eshell buffer opens
type command "which <new cmd under new path>"
output   "not found   in 'path'"  (in this message, the 'path' is from (getenv "PATH"))
  this is confusing, because the function uses 'eshell-path-env' for search and use (getenv "PATH") for error messaging 
the bug:
eshell-path-env gets out of sync with (getenv "PATH")
