discalimer: I don't even know whether I changed that bit of my sudo
config, but `sudo -E` does work fine for me.
The discussion that added -E to the default sudo is at #361362.
My grepping through the sudo config doesn't reveal any interesting
change env-wise, but I fear removing the -E would break quite some
things:
