* The technique embodied here works if libc follows the Single Unix Spec
|
|
* and actually uses the storage passed to putenv() to hold the environ
|
|
* entry. When we clobber the entry in the second step we are ensuring
|
|
* that we zap the actual environ member. However, there are some libc
|
|
* implementations (notably recent BSDs) that do not obey SUS but copy the
|
|
* presented string. This method fails on such platforms. Hopefully all
|
|
* such platforms have unsetenv() and thus won't be using this hack. See:
|
|
* http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2008/putenv.html

|
* Note that repeatedly setting and unsetting a var using this code will
|
|
* leak memory.
