Folks, I wasn't aware that there is a cutting edge version of the cutting edge version. I just downloaded that and installed it (a little bit against the "never change a running system" theory). TM and latex compilations still work fine, but I get an error message now, which I don't know what it means:
/Users/clausman/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Support/lib/tm/ process.rb:125: warning: Insecure world writable dir /usr/local/bin in PATH, mode 040777
Does either of you have any pointers? Thanks for your help, Claus

Hello again, Seems I am still having some trouble with the latex bundle. Basically, the first time I attempt to typeset after launching textmate, I get:
================================================== The current PATH is:
/usr/bin /bin /usr/sbin /sbin Please add the directory containing ?kpsewhich? to PATH in TextMate's Shell Variables preferences.
Alternatively, the PATH can be retrieved from Terminal but this requires a relaunch: (button to perform this operation) ==================================================
Now as a matter of fact the correct path is present in my shell variables in textmate's preferences (in "shell variables" under "advanced"), as opposed to just /usr/bin, /bin and sbin as mentioned in the message; furthermore, it is already in my usual PATH. If I do click on the button, it quits and restarts and everything is ok. Checking the preferences, a new PATH var has been added, containing my shell path. This addition occurs even if the exact same path variable is already present in textmate's preferences.
If I now quit and restart textmate, the same process is repeated, and a new path variable added to the preferences before I can typeset (identical to the other ones already there), and everything works after that, until I quit again, and so on.
This did not happen before I updated my latex and support bundles.
Maybe I'm just being thick, but I can't see what is going on, and this is starting to get annoying. Any ideas?
Update TextMate to bleeding edge by ?+Click (Option+click) the ?Check for updates?? button in TextMate's Software Update preference pane.
I had the same problem and updating to the cutting edge did not help. I had to include /usr/texbin in the path in ~/.MacOSX/ environment.plist
Updating to cutting edge is not enough. You have to ?+Click (Option +Click) the ?Check now? button in the Software Update prefpane. This downloads a special TM build that corrects a bug with the way TextMate puts Shell Variables into the environment. After this, setting ?PATH? in the Shell Variables section of preferences is enough.

well, it looks like you chmod'ed your /usr/local/bin/ directory to 777. “exec” actually shows this warning, so I wouldn't be surprised if you get this warning when running commands from the shell as well.
the simple fix is to (in Terminal):
sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin

While you're at it, check that it's root owned (user & group)...
