We made sure that save_env_before_alias() does not skip saving the
environment when asked to (which led to use-after-free of orig_cwd
in restore_env() in the buggy version) with the previous step.
Protect against future breakage where somebody adds new callers of
these functions in an unbalanced fashion.
