If that's your requirement, how about this patch then? Tested on OSF/1 and
Solaris. With this, "make check" passes in the tests/ directory.

        Fix test suite execution failure on OSF/1 5.1.
        * tests/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Use a shell function, to
        ensure that we use only the portable form of the 'export' shell
        built-in.
