Which might mean that foreach is unusable on systems whose environment
variables are case insensitive, as whatever command spawned by foreach
has its $PATH clobberred. It is not a regression to them, so it is not
urgent to address it, but going forward, perhaps we can encourage users
of _all_ platforms to use $sm_path for portability?
