Actually, we broke it here: 
https://github.com/web2py/web2py/commit/b4acfd0724845633f667a55e593a15576379554d.

Previously, response._view_environment was created at the end of 
build_environment, and then again very shortly thereafter in 
serve_controller (right after executing the models). We thought we could 
get rid of the line in build_environment, but it turns out that creates a 
problem for the scheduler (and presumably the shell), as the application 
code is executed via shell.env rather than serve_controller in those cases.

I'll open an issue and propose a fix.
