setenv, unsetenv: work around various bugs
POSIX requires setenv(NULL,"",0), setenv("a=b","",0), unsetenv(NULL), and unsetenv("a=b") to fail with EINVAL, but many BSD implementations lack validation. The gnulib replacement for void unsetenv did not do validation, and the replacement for setenv was out of sync with glibc. Also, some BSD implementations of setenv("a","==",1) eat the leading '='. See also some recent Austin Group interpretations on environ: http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=167 http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=185 * lib/setenv.c (setenv) [!HAVE_SETENV]: Resync from glibc. (setenv) [HAVE_SETENV]: Work around bugs. * lib/unsetenv.c (unsetenv) [HAVE_UNSETENV]: Work around bugs. * m4/setenv.m4 (gl_FUNC_SETENV_SEPARATE, gl_FUNC_UNSETENV): Check for bugs.
