I have coded a patch witch allows to forward environment variables
from the client to the server.
To specify forwarding in your ssh client add the option

ForwardEnv varname		# forward varname with value
				# as in environment of the
				# ssh client. If variable is
				# not defined in the environment
				# of the ssh client nothing will
				# be forwarded.
ForwardEnv varname=value	# forward varname with value
UnforwardEnv varname		# override ForwardEnv in
				# /etc/ssh/ssh_config
to your ssh_config file.
The patch must be applied on top of the
openssh-3.2.3p1-gssapi-20020527.diff patch.

WARNING:
This patch has only been tested on my linux system.

Best regards
Joachim Falk
