Comment (by mankoff):

 I'm not clear how the comment in `grass.py` pointing to this ticket helps.
 Certain critical environment variables that are **required** for GRASS to
 work correctly cannot be set in either `~/.grass.bashrc` or
 `~/.grass7/bashrc`, as long as the line ignoring `export` statements
 remains. Why can't I `export` variables from these scripts?
