Here are my proposed changes...
https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/pull/331

Here it is a sample log of the first job...
https://travis-ci.org/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/jobs/473714437#L441
https://travis-ci.org/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/jobs/473714437#L9438

So the goal was that you can hover over the environment variables to easily
review the test configuration here...
https://travis-ci.org/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/builds/473714436

I'm not sure how the newspeak builds should be handled differently,
since they use an alternate test script from here...
