[PHP] Setting a Superglobal from the Shell ?

Hey,

Does anyone know if it is possible to set a PHP Superglobal variable (in an Apache2 working environment) from the shell or command line?

I tried to set one like this by creating a file env.php with this:

PHP Code:
<?php
$_ENV
['MYCOOLVAR']  = 'YEAME';
?>
And I executed as root with:

Code:
php env.php

But no joy....

I get the impression it is not possible to do this because of PHP restrictions.
