You didn't read the first and second lines.
I mean: I have my environment variables set to chinese and have a 
chinese mozilla running. Now I open a terminal, change the environment 
to japanese and start another mozilla instance from there. Because I 
have already one running with chinese environment, the second instance 
will inherit the environment from the first one and doesn't care about 
my japanese definition. But I want to have to seperate instances of 
mozilla, one with chinese, one with japanese als environment settings.
