I know you can do something like this:

-cmdenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./my_libs

if you have shared libraries in a subdirectory under the cwd (such as occurs 
when using -cacheArchive to load and unpack a jar full of .so files into the 
distributed cache)...but this destroys the existing path.  I think I want 
something more like this:

-cmdenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./my_libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

but it interprets the environment variable as it constructs the command.  It 
uses the local version of the variable and converts it as it builds the hadoop 
command, it doesn't send the $ version to hadoop to be converted at that later 
time.

Is this something that can be fixed by some combination of single,double,back 
quotes and back slashes?  I'm uncertain of the proper sequence.
