My understanding is that the administrators of certain installations cannot set 
environmental variables (I am taking this on faith, because that seems like a 
very very restricted site). What I suggested takes no work at all by installers 
or wiki administrators. MWInit.php (or whatever people want to name it) is part 
of the distribution. When you run a command line utility you have to be able to 
type something like "php <some name>.php". If you can do that, you should be 
able to type "php -d <directory where MWINI.php is located> <some name>.php".

If I am wrong and for some sites even that is not possible, then I am not sure 
how you would use command line utlities at all.
