I think we really want to use c_isalpha() + _, since those are the valid
characters for an environment variable.  !c_isdigit would only disallow digits,
while allowing other symbols like @, #, etc.

In any case, it is a good idea; we really only need to look at the first letter
for this particular check, so I've changed the logic.
