This makes the variable available in the bitbake datastore (e.g. you can
reference it in recipes, or you can use d.getVar("ABC") in python), but
it won't make it available automatically as an environment variable. To
have it as an env var you are expected to export it, with "export ABC"
in the recipe, either in a task to make it available in that specific
task, or outside of tasks, to make it available in all tasks. (Or in a
global config file, like local.conf for example, to make  it available
for all tasks globally as env var)

Since you mention that it is available in the compile step, I wonder if
you have an explicit "export ABC" in the do_compile task.
