Hmm, why git-shell?

It is either run by ssh (via command="" option in authorized_keys file),
by init/login (if in /etc/passwd), or by gitosis (and its equivalent).

Wouldn't these callers already give it a sane environment (and if a
lookalike to gitosis forgets to do so, wouldn't Stephen's argument not to
hide the issue from the daemon writers apply)?
