So... this is certainly the deepest I've got to dig into any source code.

I'm experimenting with Review Board for code reviews, and trying to get it set up/working here at work. When using post-review, however, I started getting issues with untrusted users - even though they were set to trusted in my ~/.hgrc and things worked fine otherwise.

So here's where things got weird. I could call `subprocess.check_output(['hg', 'root'])`, and things worked just fine. But when I added the env parameter, I got the untrusted issues. So if I did:

import os, subprocess

# Works just fine
subprocess.check_output(['hg', 'root'])

# Gives untrusted issues
subprocess.check_output(['hg', 'root'], env=os.environ)


Long story short, I dug around the source code and ended up at the POSIX execve function. I've been reading the manpages, but nothing seems to pop out at me as "hey, this should/shouldn't work!".

Does anyone know what's going on here, or where I should go for more help?

Thanks,
Wayne
