It does not mean it was correct :-)

| What is wrong about the behavior?

I explained the behaviour that you can reproduce.  Try it with depsys,
bootsys.

| What do you believe is the correct setting? And why?

(1) Setting the variable leads to the wrong behaviour I described earlier.
(2) Then, I went to grep for that variable.  The output is that it is
    not set to any coherent value.
(3) commenting its setting leads to a coherent behaviour.

| I'm not saying you are wrong, I just need to understand your reasoning.

I understand that :-)
