The Windows packages mapnik_win32_py25-0.5.1.zip and mapnik_win32_py25-0.5.0.zip have issues with finding mapnik.dll, despite the path being correctly set.

This appears to be due to Mapnik not recognising the %PATH% environment variable. The fix is to create a User %PATH% variable, but this doesn't appear to be standard behaviour. Is someone able to verify how Mapnik uses system paths?
