The macOS installer updates .bash_profile to add the current python version to the PATH.

The problem is that it doesn't check to see if that work has already been done in a previous installation.  So, as a person install successive beta releases, release candidates, a final release, and then maintenance releases, the PATH variable grows and grows.

As it stands now, a manual edit is required every after every update/upgrade.
