Supposedly the .bat file resets the PATH afterwards -- but maybe it doesn't in some cases (non-zero exit?). Here's the original: 

@echo off
set APR_ICONV_PATH=C:\Program Files\svk\iconv
set OLDPATH=%PATH%
set PATH=C:\Program Files\svk\bin;%PATH%
if "%OS%" == "Windows_NT" goto WinNT
"C:\Program Files\svk\bin\perl" "C:\Program Files\svk\bin\svk" %1 %2 %
+3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
goto endofperl
:WinNT
"C:\Program Files\svk\bin\perl" "C:\Program Files\svk\bin\svk" %*
if NOT "%COMSPEC%" == "%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe" goto endofperl
if %errorlevel% == 9009 echo You do not have SVK installed correctly.
if errorlevel 1 goto script_failed_so_exit_with_non_zero_val 2>nul
set PATH=%OLDPATH%
set APR_ICONV_PATH=
