You are certainly right.

I'm thinking about putting together a tiny jar that contains a command
line Java main class that compares System.getEnv and Ant's traditional
way on the current system and then ask on our user list whether anybody
there was willing to run it on the more exotic OSes in use.  I volunteer
to drive that if people think it was a good idea.
