   Safest is to have a specific cron file for that (and maybe other Myth 
jobs) and amend PATH in that file.  You may be able to do it on a per-job 
basis;  see the crontab man page, I don't remember OTTOMH.

   Actually, I may be thinking of sudo!  Maybe add the PATH to the cron job 
entry, then:

* blah * * *  PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin mythfilldatabase args...
