The environment variable is being set correctly in Linux but 
ProjectViewer is not using it on Linux to find the path to projects 
there when the variable prefixed paths PV option is checked.

I also noticed in Project Viewer on Windows that even when I set a 
project path using all forward slashes ( and all interior paths in the 
project xml file to forward slashes ) to accomodate the path on Linux, 
Project Viewer on Windows silently sets everything back to back slashes. 
Is this what is confusing Project Viewer on Linux, that the path is 
showing back slashes rather than forward slashes in the PV.xml and 
project XML files ?
