Mmm, that seems like a shortcoming. Well, you could just wrap the C functions yourself, like this (two possibilities, no error checking yet, quick hack): http://hpaste.org/fastcgi/hpaste.fcgi/view?id=10565#a10565
Note that using SetEnvironmentVariable does not seem to be compatible with getEnv, but calling _putenv does work. So I guess someone should add this setEnv wrapper to the System.Environment module?
