Can't rely say, this works for me:
{
"variables" : {
"aws_access_key" : ""
},
"builders": [
{
"type": "docker",
"image": "ubuntu",
"export_path": "/dev/null"
}
],
"provisioners" : [
{
"type" : "shell",
"environment_vars" : [
"AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID={{user `aws_access_key`}}"
],
"inline" : [
"echo AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID is $AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID",
"echo '{{user `aws_access_key`}}'"
]
}
]
}
$ packer build -var aws_access_key="AIKA" env_var_inline.json
docker output will be in this color.

Could you try that and post the output when running this if it doesn't work.
