Hello Mark,
I'm going through the list of old Emacs bugs in Debian. This one is a
bit mysterious to me.

Passing into the environment of a shell running under Emacs seems to be
wrong, since the frame where the shell buffer is displayed (if any) is
subject to change, and you cannot change the environment of subprocesses
after they are started. It's also not clear to me which problem you
want to solve. Could you elaborate?
Regards,
Sven
