JULIA_PROJECT is not respected

[bjarthur]

i compile_package and then julia -J ... in a directory which contains {Project,Manifest}.toml files and in an environment which has exported JULIA_PROJECT=@.. ]st shows what's in ~/.julia/dev/PackageCompiler/packages/Project.toml, not in $(pwd)/Project.toml.

workaround is to ]activate ., but i shouldn't have to do that as that is not how the standard julia sysimg works.

seems as if JULIA_PROJECT is disregarded entirely, as JULIA_PROJECT=$(pwd) julia -J ... also uses ~/.julia/dev/PackageCompiler/packages/Project.toml.
