[Bug: 21.5-b28] bug in setenv interactive command

================================================================ Dear Bug Team! When I use M-x setenv to set my PATH environment variable, I cannot type the path correctly, i.e. I type '/opt' and when I want to type another '/', an error message 'Wrong type argument: vectorp...' would come up. Following is the stack trace: Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument vectorp "/opt/gcc-3.2-32/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/opt/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/contrib/bin") self-insert-command(1) call-interactively(self-insert-command) (dispatch-event "[internal]") read-minibuffer-internal("Set PATH to value: ") byte-code("..."
