Maybe you really like your script, but it seems problemed to me. It's possible to want a dir to a path which does not currently exist. Also, it will not work on some versions of sh which do not support the 'function keyword'.

Pesonally I'd seperate add_to_path from add_to_manpath to produce the simple:

add_to_path() {
if [ "$PATH"x == x ]; then PATH=$1; fi
if [ "$2" == atstart ]; then PATH=$1:$PATH
else; PATH=$PATH:$1; fi
}

But I suppose, each to his own.
