I see that this was added recently:

745580a36dc (Glenn Morris      2022-01-12  322) # Prevent any settings in the 
user environment causing problems.
745580a36dc (Glenn Morris      2022-01-12  323) unexport EMACSDATA EMACSDOC 
EMACSLOADPATH EMACSPATH

Does this mean that the problem reported here is now also fixed?
