For the record, this is a problem with recent opensolaris builds only  
it seems. It seems that these recent builds link /bin/sh (used in all  
tramp-methods sections as tramp-remote-sh) to ksh93 which core dumps  
when you try to use the usual

VAR=blah; export VAR

env settings, which tramp does towards the end of session setup. I had  
to redefine tramp-methods for ssh to use /bin/bash.
