It surely is, given that ":" is to be intended as a normal character for a path (see the ":" right after "d").

But I have the same AUCTeX version as you, and it's inserting ";". I have Windows 7, though. I don't know the mechanism by which AUCTeX changes this environment variable... could it be that it's customized to the Windows version?

As far as I can see your init customization shouldn't trouble this environment variable, but I may be mistaken.
