Comment (by carljm):
For historical interest - the custom copy of `get_environ()` was
introduced in the earliest days of Django (in
https://github.com/django/django/commit/b68c478a), in the initial commit
that created runserver. There was no explanation in that commit of why the
method was copied. I suppose (again, just for historical interest) one
could compare it with the `get_environ()` method present in whatever
stdlib was current in July 2005 to see what, if any, changes Adrian made
to it.
