Nothing wrong with it.  The problem is that Tramp ignores those
let-bindings because it fails to propagate this environment to its
remote sub-processed.

`tramp-sh-handle-process-file' really needs to compare
process-environment with (default-toplevel-value 'process-environment)
to infer the env-vars that have been added via let-binding and then
propagate those to the remote sub-process.
