Once I get a clear idea of what kind of change is likely to actually
get accepted I'll submit a proper patch.

Too often, people disappear with a patch that is basically good but has room for improvements this way. I really do not have time nor bandwidth to keep bugging them for updates, and often end up cleaning up on my own
instead.

The problem in this case was that my patch didn't receive any meaningful feedback (ie. suggestions for improvement), only a lot of bikeshed stuff about whether the environment variable should have an underscore prefix or not, whether or not I should use "export FOO=..." or not etc. So I didn't know what was necessary in order to get it accepted.

This is such a patch, and without acks or comments, it is also very
likely to be lost.

Ok, please disregard the resend that I just posted a few minutes ago (hadn't seen your new patch yet).

Cheers,
Wincent
