No, not the vncserver script, the init script that invokes vncserver.

In fact,  if you simply replace the line that says

   vncserver

with the *exact* syntax I put in, it will work.

THe parentheses start a local environment and the PATH adds to the path 
for that environment and then invokes vncserver with the "richer" 
environment that will make it happy.

    (PATH=$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin; vncserver)
