There's a JIRA issue about the interpolation of properties in settings.xml
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2577
Check the version of Maven you are using.
I'm using maven 2.0.9 and I have an environnement variable named REPOSITORY.
In my settings.xml I have
<localRepository>${env.REPOSITORY}</localRepository> and everything works
fine. You could try that.
