Sorry that you're getting this twice again, Thomas,
but I keep flummoxing the list-reply function (old age + brain tumor).

I just tried, and giving the full path in the rc.xml doesn't seem to 
make any difference.

I'm the only user on this system.
Does when really matter?
Every time/any time I get these errors now.

Yes, the $PATH is set in my .bashrc...
Wait.. Is this why I can start them in a terminal, but openbox can't?
Because the path is being set in my .bashrc, and, thus, only for shells 
I open?
When I switch to su, echo $PATH, of course, gives a different response
(includes /sbin/ stuff, but not $HOME anything),
If this is the problem, how to I get my $HOME/bin permanently in the 
path so openbox can run stuff from there, too?
