Sorry, I cannot reproduce this here:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ kpsewhich --format=cnf texmf.cnf
/usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ export KPSE_DOT=/home/frank/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ kpsewhich --format=cnf texmf.cnf

Can you please repeat your test and run kpsewhich with a debug option:
kpsewhich --debug=126 '--expand-var=$VARTEXFONTS' 2>kpse.log
and send the kpse.log file. And please also report the output of
kpsewhich --show-path=cnf
Regards, Frank
