Basic *nix Question (Mac OS X): Where is my path being set?

Question

I have a path that starts like this

PATH=/opt/subversion:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin [etc]

and this is wrong (at least opt/subversion needs to be opt/subversion/bin). Where is this being set? I checked the usual suspects that I know:

.login
.profile
.bash
.bashrc

and it doesn't seem to be in any of these. Where do I need to look?

Stuff like this can be set on a per-user basis in which case you should be able to find something in your .bashrc, .bash_profile or .profile files. Or it can be set on a global level. In that case, I'd take a look inside /etc/environment, /etc/profile and /etc/bash.bashrc.
