David,

Down to running my own "make check" in a different directory from the 
one the buildbot is running in, the environments look identical to me:

Running shell tests on hashed repositories...
environment is:
IFS=

SHELL=/bin/sh
TERM=xterm-color
DARCS_DONT_COLOR=1
MAKEFLAGS=
USER=buildbot
MAKELEVEL=1
MFLAGS=
PATH=/Users/buildbot/unstable/tests-shell-hashed.dir/bin:/opt/local/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
_=/usr/bin/env
PWD=/Users/buildbot/unstable/tests-shell-hashed.dir
DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_ANYTHING=1
HOME=/Users/buildbot/unstable/tests-shell-hashed.dir
SHLVL=3
EMAIL=tester
DARCS_EMAIL=tester
