I did see that it was moved. But shell functions in bitbake often open
a new shell and do not inherit all env, that is why we need to export
the variables all over the place instead of just doing it once. And i
am afraid doing in python and later forking a fresh shell might make
you not have the variables in the shell.

It should be double checked that shell functions opened with the
pattern of "isar_export_proxies; bb.build.exec_func" do receive the
variables as they used to. Maybe it is already the case, just asking
and pointing out.
