That's it. I had a /usr/src on my cobalt box, but not on my i386 box.
Here's the variable:

root@taz:/usr # echo $cdpath
/usr/src/sys /usr/src/bin /usr/src/sbin /usr/src/usr.bin
/usr/src/usr.sbin /usr/src/lib /usr/src/libexec /usr/src/share
/usr/src/local /usr/src/games /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin
/usr/src/gnu/usr.sbin /usr/src/gnu/libexec /usr/src/gnu/lib
/usr/src/gnu/games

I never knew of a such thing as $cdpath.
