PHP runs as its own user in its own environment. Stuff you cram into your environment has no effect on that, as it should be. If you alter the environment of the PHP user you might get what you want. You may also be able to use http://php.net/setenv And http://php.net/getenv is probably faster than your exec. Setting the env up in httpd.conf and/or php.ini and/or .htaccess should work. httpd.conf for sure, others I think.
