make is not a problem if the DYLD_* assignments are in a makefile rule
(as currently), because then make just calls a shell with a string
"DYLD_*=foo some command", which is not affected by any filtering. It
would be a problem if you do the variable assignments in a makefile
outside a rule or outside a makefile.
