Can you try to do this in the environment KDE runs in and not in a terminal 
where the shell has very likely read other configuration files as well?

for example by
ALT+F2
using command
env > /tmp/kdeenv.txt
and then  checking PATH in there

Btw, is this KDE_DIR variable something you use for KDE related things?
Or is this a typo and you meant KDEDIR?

Cheers,
Kevin
