It could be a page alignment thing.  I bet most stacks start on the
first page (env + command line is usually not 4k i'd wager), but with
this particular case, it could be on the second page.  Totally
speculative, but weirder things have been seen.

What seems odd is that this is in FS mode.  I wouldn't expect any of
that code to be affected by the environment.  Perhaps time for a code
audit to see how we are using the environment.  There are a couple of
calls to getenv to get TZ on the C++ side of things.
