Do you think command which does sudo to change is behavior based on
environment variable and source random code to be OK?
I have no problem /usr/lib/pbuilder/foo to change behavior. But I did
not /usr/bin/pdebuild or /usr/sbin/pbuilder to change their behavior.
This security concern was rationale behind this. But since other
variables also needs to be initialized, this may not be meaningful.
