-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Revision r41961 fixed an unsetenv() bug on Windows (see TT #1093)
but it turns out the exact same error is also present in the "generic"
version of this file in config/gen/platform/generic/env.c.
I started to work up a patch to make the parallel change to the generic
file, but then I realized that those two files are almost identical in
effect, but have drifted apart. Is there a good reason for this code
duplication, or should both files be combined, perhaps with a few
judicious Win32 #ifdef statements. Would a patch to re-combine the two be
welcome, or is the preference to keep them separate?
Along a similar vein, I wonder how many of the differences between the
platform/openbsd/ and platform/netbsd/ files are truly significant.
Carrying the current arrangement further, I wonder why there's no freebsd
or dragonflybsd directory. I seek to avoid pointless duplication.
