What version are you running?
1.6.3

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a commands directory in a reviewboard site.
2. Try to run any management command, such as rb-site manage <path> upgrade

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The management command should run. Instead, I get this output for every management command that tries to run:

[!] Unable to execute the manager command index: Settings cannot be
    imported, because environment variable DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is
    undefined.

Removing the commands directory fixes the problem.

What operating system are you using? What browser?
Mac OS X Lion, Safari 5.1.

Care to explain what I did wrong? I followed the documentation on adding site-specific management commands.

This sounds like a bug. We don't have unit testing for this, unfortunately, so something may have broken. It's probably an easy fix, though.

(Might be a good one to have a student fix during our Sprint?)

Could not reproduce on master, going to work on a different bug.

I think this is fixed. Been using it myself. Please reopen if you can verify it on RB 1.7 or 2.0.
