Not very descriptinve, but obvious things to check are that
the variables are exported and the perl code is forked w/in
the shell that set the var's.

You'll generally find it less effort to set %ENV in the perl
code that then shell. Puts all the issues in one place, and
you have better logic in perl anyway.
