 Thanks; this is known and pending, see #563209

 I'm afraid you need the setenv flag in sudoers:
       -E          The -E (preserve environment) option will override the
                   env_reset option in sudoers(5)).  It is only available when
                   either the matching command has the SETENV tag or the
                   setenv option is set in sudoers(5).

 I seem to be able to run "sudo -E whatever" with the default squeeze
 config; did you change your sudoers?

 If this is still an issue for you, would you mind filing a separate
 report or cloning this one?

   Thanks,
