I couldn't understand the reason for the double registration of the path :
(surly the script was executed twice).
I write (for the benefit of others) the solution I found:
(I modified the script with a condition).
---------
newpath="/opt/netbeans/java/maven/bin"
if [[ "$PATH" != *"$newpath"* ]]; then
PATH=$PATH:/opt/netbeans/java/maven/bin
export PATH
fi
---------

Some applications (IDE?) appear to source /etc/profile when starting,
which is why we have the pathmunge function. I think this is done so
you
have the same PATH whether the app is run by clicking on a menu or by
starting
it from a terminal.
