I hope that this issue can be addressed under bug 485106. Given a suitable
config file, EC2_URL can be defined there.

In general, though, I hope we can move away from expecting people to set
configuration in environment variable.  Basically, given a suitable
configuration file (which could be installed by default or be well
documented), the user should not have to worry about such things.
