You could try the most verbose form of execute:

http://groovy.codehaus.org/groovy-jdk/java/lang/String%5B%
5D.html#execute%28java.lang.String[],%20java.io.File%29

Something along the lines of

String[] env = ...
File workingDirectory = ...
String[] cmd = ['p4d', '-r', '/dbpath/', '-c', 'command2']

cmd.execute(env, workingDirectory)
