Have you tried withsudo PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games
? This will only work for the actual session.

Close the terminal app, and open a new one. The variable will be reset to its original state then.
If you're on a virtual terminal, and not running gnome-terminal or similar under X11, then you can log out and log back in again, to reset the variables. You can type exit
to log out, or press Ctrl+D.
