The issue seems to be in jython 2.5 os.environ you could set an environment variable to be used later by other command in the session. In my case I would use os.environ['ORACLE_HOME'] to set the home and then later run os.system commands that need the ORACLE_HOME set which worked fine in jython 2.5.2 and works in python 2.7 but doesn't seem to work for jython 2.7. I am testing this on RHEL 6. 

Follow these steps to reproduce:

jython 2.7
import os
os.environ['TESTING'] = 'VALUEFORTEST'
os.system('env')
