Even modern BSD-growned soft do the right thing. Consider tcsh or openssh, 
since they are portable enough they don't use dirty env tricks like 
untouched soft from 1970s.

We can safely assume that any port from ports collection compiles either 
on Linux or Solaris, so must do it properly.

We must not keep error made once by BSD developers (improper emulation of 
SysV putenv()) forever.
