It's parsed by "init", oddly enough ;-)

If you change /etc/default/init, you need to reboot (sadly, there is no 
way to get init to re-read the config file). Then init will have the new 
settings, and all children of init will inherit them.

I haven't looked at the source to see if sshd will pass said environment 
along to its children or not.
