`RUNNER_TOOL_CACHE` and/or `AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY` not picked up on self hosted runner

Description:
I have exported RUNNER_TOOL_CACHE and AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY in the shell running the self-hosted runner, however a pip install in the workflow still uses /opt/hostedtoolcache directory.

From the Self-hosted runner directory:

export RUNNER_TOOL_CACHE="$(pwd)/_work/_tool"
export AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY="$(pwd)/_work/_tool"
./run.sh

Expected behavior:
I would expect the pip install step to set properly the -I flags without /opt/hostedtoolcache

Actual behavior:
The logs (see above) show that it tried to add an include path (-I/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.10.14/x64/include/python3.10) which do not exist on the self hosted runner.

Workaround I am not fond of

export CPATH=$(pwd)/_work/_tool/Python/3.10.14/x64/include/python3.10
./run.sh

With this workaround I manage to install the lib, however it looks like that pip cached some stuff in the default cache directory:

  pip install PyGObject
  shell: /usr/bin/bash -e {0}
  env:
    pythonLocation: /home/nicolas/work/siema/be/shr/_work/_tool/Python/3.10.14/x64

even though the RUNNER_TOOL_CACHE and AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY have been set up.

I took the idea of this workaround from https://github.com/actions/setup-python/issues/489 and https://github.com/actions/setup-python/issues/485
However I do not understand why the RUNNER_TOOL_CACHE and AGENT_TOOLSDIRECTORY are not used.

Beside, if i run

grep -R /opt/hostedtoolcache *

from _work/_tool I get a lot of match:

I don't really know where pip gets the include path from, but I guess from one of the above files which clearly points to an invalid folder.

Thanks in advance for your help, let me know if you need more information.

Reproduce el workflow de Ubuntu self-hosted proporcionado con actions/setup-python@v5 e inspecciona los metadatos de Python instalados en _work/_tool, incluidos su Makefile, sus archivos pkg-config y python-config.py. Rastrea de dónde obtiene pip la ruta de include /opt/hostedtoolcache; se considera terminado cuando el workflow utiliza la ruta de herramientas self-hosted y pip puede compilar PyGObject sin CPATH.
