I see that this was added recently:

745580a36dc (Glenn Morris      2022-01-12  322) # Prevent any settings in the user environment causing problems.
745580a36dc (Glenn Morris      2022-01-12  323) unexport EMACSDATA EMACSDOC EMACSLOADPATH EMACSPATH

Does this mean that the problem reported here is now also fixed?
