DrRacket will only get the $PATH from your "normal" UNIX-y environment 
if it's started from a terminal.

You can still get environment variables if you start DrRacket the usual icon-clicking way, though.

All you need to do is to manually create 
the property list file "~/.MacOSX/environment.plist" and put your $PATH there.
It's a horrible solution, but it works and it's the official way.

See 
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPRuntimeConfig/Articles/EnvironmentVars.html
for details.
