Still working for me here (on PPC Mac) after applying the 10.4.6  
update. What's yielding for you (in Terminal)

	echo $PATH

There should be, I imagine, some sort of syntax of kpsewhich allowing  
it to report where on your disk is the pdflatex that is used. But as  
usual, after reading again the relevant pp. 35--38 of /Library/teTeX/ 
share/texmf.tetex/doc/programs/kpathsea.pdf, I can't understand this  
syntax. I tried naively

	kpsewhich pdflatex

with no luck.
