All of the globals in env_unix.c are supposed to be globals.
The env_init() function is called once in the entire run of the
application. It should be called prior to starting any threads, just as
the linkage.c module is. If necessary, call myusername(), e.g.,
int main (int argc,char *argv[])
{
#include "linkage.c"
myusername();
start_my_application(argc,argv);
}
If your application is a mail client, there is no reason why it should not
want myUserName and myHomeDir to be global across all threads. This is
the client's local username and home directory, and NOT any username or
home directory on a server.
