There should be three levels for the software environment: user-specific, release-specific, and base. For best-practice, environment variables should NEVER EVER (!!) be put in your .cshrc (or equivalent) file. This is because if you ever need to switch between environments (e.g. between a "data challenge" release and the latest trunk) it gets very messy and it's very easy to make a mistake. It's far safer (and cleaner) to keep everything separate.
