[Buildbot-devel] env variables from last step

[Dustin J. Mitchell]

Does this executable run some other tool in that environment?  In a
typical POSIX environment sense, there's no way for an executable to
affect the environment variables of the process that invoked it.  For
example, if I write a Python script setvar.py with

import os.environ
os.environ['SNARS'] = 'FOO'

then

$ SNARS=BAR
$ echo $SNARS
BAR
$ python setvar.py
$ echo $SNARS
BAR

So I think I'll need to konw more about what "sets for me many env
variables" means
