+Version 4.2
+```````````
+
+* Change: When an ``env`` parameter is specified to the :class:`~.spawn` or
+ :class:`~.run` family of calls containing a value for ``PATH``, its value is
+ used to discover the target executable from a relative path, rather than the
+ current process's environment ``PATH``. This mirrors the behavior of
+ :func:`subprocess.Popen` in the standard library.
