I'd say this isn't a bug, but actually expected behavior.
If you need different values for variables depending on which software
you run, you either need to prefix them manually each time you call that
software, or write a wrapper script, or use if/then clauses in your
.bash_profile.  The latter is what you seem to have decided to do, and
ran into problems with, judging from your bug report #1134, thus closing
this one.

Package: NXAGENT
Version: 3.5.0

My .bash_profile defines Perl environment variables for Active Perl, and adds the Active Perl bin directory to the start of the path. This causes an x2go session to fail with the message:
Connection failed. /usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /share/carvajal-archive/PACKAGES/local/ActivePerl-5.24/lib/auto/Sys/Hostname/Hostname.so: undefined symbol: Perl_xs_handshake
NXAGENT is user /usr/bin/perl and ignoring the Perl bin directory at the start of the path, but it is nevertheless using the Perl environment variables and so is looking in the wrong place for the Perl library.
