Local job environment should override inherited job environment

[Sandeep Puddupakkam (spuddupa)]

Hi,
I have 2 jobs 
foo
----
env NAME=foo
export NAME
console output
script
   echo "INSIDE [$UPSTART_JOB]. NAME:[$NAME]"
   exec sleep 500
end script

foo1
-----
start on started foo
env NAME=foo1
export NAME
console output
script
   echo "INSIDE [$UPSTART_JOB]. NAME:[$NAME]"
end script

When I start foo, I see that the NAME being exported from foo is taking
precedence over the local environment variable defined in foo1.
Is this a bug?
I will see if I can overrite the inherited environement with the local
environment variables before spawning the job.
 
Here is the console output
---------
[nova_k10:/etc/init/jobs.d]$ start foo
[nova_k10:/etc/init/jobs.d]$ INSIDE [foo1]. NAME:[foo]
INSIDE [foo]. NAME:[foo]
