How did attempt to compile the package? This is clearly an issue with  
setting your PATH correctly. Running R CMD INSTALL (or R itself) in  
the same shell that has the PATH you describe should work. But I  
suspect that's not what you're doing ... therefore it's important to  
know how exactly you try to install it ...
