>>If you are talking about OS X, then `.app` bundles don't inherit
environment variables from the same places Terminal apps do 

You are correct, sir, although in testing I see that it's not really a
difference between .app GUI apps and console apps, but rather how an app is
launched. So starting QGIS by double-clicking QGIS.app means that
/usr/local/bin is not in the env. path, but starting it from the Terminal
like this means that /usr/local/bin _is_ in the path:

open /Applications/QGIS.app

Another fix might be for a future SAGA package to create a symlink to
saga_cmd in /usr/bin - that's always on the env. path regardless of how QGIS
is launched.

Thanks.

-Phil
