/etc/profile does even look at my .bash_profile but the .bashrc and /

This is the easiest way of accomplishing this.
Now, again, what are consecuences (negative) of forcing a loging
shell all the time.
I tried commenting the line in ~/Xterm and exported PATH from
~/.bashrc to no avail.
Did I read you use zsh? How do set your PATH?
-f
With Leopard, system paths are set by path_helper. Leopard ships with /
etc/zprofile calling path_helper by default. This file is sourced by
zsh when a login shell is requested. Of course, the problem is that
utilities like unison, which MacPorts installs in /opt/local/bin, need
to be in the default path when they are called on a remote machine,
and shells are not run as login shells when you use unison. Hence, if
you need utilities in your path even when you aren't running a login
shell, you probably have to move the call to path_helper into /etc/
zshenv.
