Well this certainly opens up a can of worms! Not your patch, but what
it implies. For example, env_set() assumes envp is not NULL as well.
In fact, most of the code assumes envp is not NULL, and 99% of the time
that is true due to the env_init() calls.
I found at least one case in the code where free_entry() is called with
e->envp == NULL. Perhaps a more correct fix would simply be to have
free_entry() check for e->envp != NULL before calling env_free() rather
then having env_free() check for NULL.
It would be great if the original poster could try this patch rather
then the above patch to see if it also fixes the problem.
