Subject: getenv_r
I noticed that getenv is not thread-safe. Would there be any interest in
accepting a patch to implement getenv_r (a NetBSD function) and internal
locking? Other than leaving getenv, setenv, and putenv unsafe in threaded
environments, the only other alternative is the ugliness that glibc,
Solaris, and some others implement, which is basically to leak environ
memory.
