Here is what's going on.
Your config.h has
#define HAVE_LOGIN_CAP_H 1
#define HAVE_LOGIN_GETCAPBOOL 1
--------< defines.h >-------
#if defined(HAVE_LOGIN_GETCAPBOOL) && defined(HAVE_LOGIN_CAP_H)
# define HAVE_LOGIN_CAP
#endif
----------------------------
-----< session.c >----- (edited)
#ifdef HAVE_LOGIN_CAP
                (void) setusercontext(lc, pw, pw->pw_uid, LOGIN_SETPATH);
                child_set_env(&env, &envsize, "PATH", getenv("PATH"));
#else /* HAVE_LOGIN_CAP */
                child_set_env(&env, &envsize, "PATH", _PATH_STDPATH);
#endif /* HAVE_LOGIN_CAP */
---------------------------

So the path you want, "_PATH_STDPATH" will not be used.
I'm not sure what to do about it. I have no BSD here.
