+ * Name: exepath_init
+ *
+ * Description:
+ *   Initialize for the traversal of each value in the PATH variable.  The
+ *   usage is sequence is as follows:
+ *
+ *   1) Call exepath_init() to initialze for the traversal.  exepath_init()
+ *      will return an opaque handle that can then be provided to
+ *      exepath_next() and exepath_release().
+ *   2) Call exepath_next() repeatedly to examine every file that lies
+ *      in the directories of the PATH variable
+ *   3) Call exepath_release() to free resources set aside by exepath_init().
+ *
+ * Input Parameters:
+ *   None
+ *
+ * Returned Value:
+ *   On success, exepath_init() return a non-NULL, opaque handle that may
+ *   subsequently be used in calls to exepath_next() and exepath_release().
+ *   On error, a NULL handle value will be returned.  The most likely cause
+ *   of an error would be that the there is no value associated with the
+ *   PATH variable.

+ *
+ * Description:
+ *   Traverse all possible values in the PATH variable in attempt to find

+ *   provided.
+ *
+ * Input Parameters:
+ *   handle - The handle value returned by exepath_init
+ *   relpath - The relative path to the file to be found. 
+ *
+ * Returned Value:
+ *   On success, a non-NULL pointer to a null-terminated string is provided.
+ *   This is the full path to a file that exists in the file system.  This
+ *   function will verify that the file exists (but will not verify that it

+ *
+ *   NOTE: The string pointer return in the success case points to allocated
+ *   memory.  This memory must be freed by the called by calling kfree().
+ *
+ *   NULL is returned if no path is found to any file with the provided
+ *   'relpath' from any absolute path in the file variable.  In this case,
