It does not get a useful value.
TEXMFCNF is defined at compile-time and its setting in a texmf.cnf file is
ignored for obvious reasons. The compiled-in version shows my compile
environment which differs from the install environment on people's system.
Try
kpsewhich -expand-var=\$TEXMFCNF
in a Terminal window.
I had to do this if I wanted to make my TeX install relocatable and I had
to make it relocatable to enable the option that people who do not have
sysadmin privileges can install the TeX i-Package in their home directory
and still work with it.
In short: everything in TeX is relocatable at run time except the location
of texmf.cnf.
