> The nodemanager supports a configurable list of environment variables, via 
> yarn.nodemanager.env-whitelist, that will be propagated to the container's 
> environment unless those variables were specified in the container launch 
> context.  Unfortunately the handling of these whitelisted variables prevents 
> using delayed variable expansion.  For example, if a user shipped their own 
> version of hadoop with their job via the distributed cache and specified:
> {noformat}
> HADOOP_COMMON_HOME={{PWD}}/my-private-hadoop/
> {noformat}
>  as part of their job, the variable will be set as the *literal* string:
> {noformat}
> $PWD/my-private-hadoop/
> {noformat}
> rather than having $PWD expand to the container's current directory as it 
> does for any other, non-whitelisted variable being set to the same value.
