One of many possibilities:

    <profile id="env">
        <variable name="WPKG_ROOT" value="..."/>
        <variable name="TOOLS" value="...s"/>
        <variable name="SOFTWARE" value=..."/>
    </profile>

and assign the "env" profile to all hosts - either directly in each <host> 
element or by inclusion into every other profile.

Alternatively, you could call wpkg.js from a cmd or js wrapper script that 
sets the variable before - it's just an env var after all.
