Thanks for the reminder and the pointer to the watcher! I finally
found that it happens due to the `envrc` package.
That package is meant to set `process-environment` buffer local for
some buffers. Somehow it sets
process-environment globally local but only when emacs is started as a
daemon from the systemd unit. Running
it normally or with --fg-daemon from a terminal does not set the
variable globally local. I'll check with the envrc
maintainer why that would be but there is still something strange
going on, I would not expect Emacs behaviour to
change when started in systemd.
For people stumbling upon this, here is the code I used to pinpoint the problem:
```
(defvar pltraces (list (cons "early-init.el" (local-variable-p
'process-environment))))
(add-hook 'after-load-functions
(lambda (fn)
(setq pltraces (cons (cons fn (local-variable-p
'process-environment)) pltraces))))
(add-variable-watcher 'process-environment
(lambda (symbol newval operation where)
(when where
(setq pltraces (cons (cons (buffer-name
where) (local-variable-p 'process-environment)) pltraces)))))
```
It records the place where the variable is set and its local status in
the `pltraces` variable.
