No worries! The second part of your message (about "VAR=value make" 
being a workaround) also made me look again at how Eshell handles local 
variable settings like that, which let me fix a longstanding bug in the 
code: "VAR=value cd dir/" didn't actually change the directory. That's 
now fixed as well on master.

Thanks for confirming the fix.
