Problem passing environment variable to AWS batch job

[cfrech-cls]

My ~/.nextflow/config contains the following line:

env.LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/opt/tools/aws-cli/v2/current/dist"

From the docs my understanding is that environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH should now get exported to all task environments. However, I do not see it getting set for AWS batch jobs the workflow creates.

What am I missing?
