I still set PATH in $ZDOTDIR/.zshenv (which I source from ~/.zshenv in
case ZDOTDIR isn't yet set) but I adopted this convention:

	if [[ -z $ZSH_ENVPATH ]]
	then
	  # ... various adjustments to $path including typeset -U) ...
	  export ZSH_ENVPATH=$PATH
	fi

This has the advantage of letting me check later whether something else 
has changed the path, and even force it back to its original state with 
PATH=$ZSH_ENVPATH.
