Those variables are actually being declared in the scope of the
namespace named "globals" rather than in top scope.
In order to reference them, you could use $::globals::java_home or
"${::globals::java_home}"
Check out the sections on variables and scope in the language tutorial:
http://docs.reductivelabs.com/guides/language_tutorial.html
Hope this helps,
