What are "special environment variables"? Variables you defined, or are 
you setting already existing vars…

Yes, please submit it for review. I'm not sure I fully understand the 
issue yet, so maybe that will help. IIRC, brew uses very common lib and 
header path dirs (e.g. /usr/local/lib, /usr/local/include) and Pillow's 
setup.py certainly already checks those paths. It's good that you were 
able to get it to work by passing in the path, but I'm not sure why you 
had to.
