 Evolution is ignoring my preference for default web browser when I
 click on links.
 
 default-applications-properties is set to iceweasel,
 x-www-browser is set to iceweasel
 $BROWSER is set to iceweasel
 
 and yet Evolution chooses chromium-browser instead. 

Yes, Evolution uses the default http/https handlers, not the default
applications. I don't know where the setting can be tuned in GNOME, but
it's in gconf-editor in /desktop/gnome/url-handlers

Hope that helps.
Cheers,

It's not using /desktop/gnome/url-handlers, because those are set to
sensible-browser (which should use either x-www-browser or $BROWSER to
select the right browser). And strace shows me that sensible-browser is
not getting called.
