That PATH setting doesn't seem to make sense because it begins
with a separator, but anyway the equivalent would be:
import os
os.environ['PATH'] = ':/usr/bin'
Python exports all environmental variables when starting a new
process, as long as your C library has a putenv() function. (If it
doesn't, then you will need to pass the new environment explicitly to
the function that creates the new process.)
