I was hoping that we wouldn't have any incompatible changes . . .
I think ideally that getEnv like functions should return Maybe rather than
raising an exception. But we're stuck with the definition in the standard,
and I think that means Posix should stay the same as well.
It's not really such a pain - you've got "try" which turns an error into an
Either.
