[Buildbot-devel] Fail to set builder environnement variables in solaris

[Dustin J. Mitchell]

I don't see any reason to think that this would be Solaris-specific.
Can you produce a reduced testcase that demonstrates this?

Something like

f.addStep(ShellCommand(command="echo ${TEST_VARIABLE}"))

with TEST_VARIABLE set in the BuilderConfig?
