Summary: ::REQUIRES doesn't search Windows path

Initial Comment:
ooRexx 4.1.0 32 bit on 64 bit Windows 7.

I'm using THE editor and a macro (run.the) that saves a copy of the file
being editted in the C:\THE\ folder as a 'temp.the' file and then executes it as a macro.

I've used this technique for years to develop and test ooRexx/OLE
code for Excel, with ::REQUIRES for files in the SAME folder.

I do the same thing for the sample 'usepipe.rex', I get the error:

   129 *-* ::REQUIRES  'pipe.rex'
Error 43 running C:\THE\__tmprun.the line 129:  Routine not 
found
Error 43.901:  Could not find routine "pipe.rex" for 
::REQUIRES

The Windows PATH setting *does* include the samples folder, so
it appears that ::REQUIRES processing is not searching the PATH,
which it is documented to do.
