 sugar-toolkit commit 7b485120a3 resulted in XDG_DATA_DIRS being used to
 launch /usr/share/library-common/make_index.py.

 XDG_DATA_DIRS is not set in the environment, both on 708 and joyride.
 Should we set it in e.g. /usr/bin/olpc-session, change sugar-toolkit, or
 what? i note that http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-
 spec-0.5.html says:

 {{{
  If $XDG_DATA_DIRS is either not set or empty, a value equal to
 /usr/local/share/:/usr/share/ should be used.
 }}}
