My mistake. I just noticed that Kernel#exec() lacks an "env" parameter in the Ruby 1.8.7 API docs. So this bug report is now a feature request. Sorry for the confusion.<br>

<p>If you provide me with a patch I could commit it to ruby_1_8, but there will be no backport to ruby_1_8_7.<br>
If it's okay, reopen this issue when the patch is ready.</p>
