Lionel came up with the best solution which was to run "env" and then to
use the result stem for all the other bpxwunix() calls! Great tip!
If that's the UNIX/shell command "env", use some caution because its
output may not have metacharacters in variable values properly quoted.
"export -p" does better.
Do you have an example of "env" with the meta-characters issue?
Maybe "printenv" would be better as it only has one purpose. The trouble
with "export -p" is that the output needs to be parsed and reformatted
before it can be used in a environment variable stem.
