This sounds like a dupe of a bug I marked critical months ago:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/juju/+bug/1130809

Can someone make sure JuJu gets fixed?

I agree with Barry that we ultimately want -Es to be set automatically
though I actually like being able to override PYTHONPATH when testing
the lxc python scripts, so for this specific bug, I'd much rather the
JuJu folks fix the actual bug than have me workaround it in LXC.
