[Swift-devel] Coasters failing on Teraport - cant find Java?

[Michael Wilde]

The approach I'm testing is this:

if user has a .coasterinit file
   source it to put java in PATH
else if java is in PATH
   use it
else source /etc/profile

(executed under a non-login shell, i.e never use /bin/sh -l)

Right now I have the above in a different order (.coasterinit last) and 
it works on ranger, mercury and teraport.

.coasterinit is a more flexible alternative to a per-site option that 
points to java. Im not sure which is better.
