>
> For at least Perl 5.8.7 on Cygwin, delete()ing an environment variable
> does not apparently remove that variable from the environment of a
> subprocess. Here is a short repro case:
>
> #!/usr/bin/perl
> use strict;
> use warnings;
>
> $ENV{SHOULD_NEVER_BE_SEEN} = "hello world";
> delete($ENV{SHOULD_NEVER_BE_SEEN});
> system("printenv | grep SHOULD_NEVER_BE_SEEN");
>
> On Unix systems this script appropriately prints nothing.
> On an up to date Cygwin installation this prints "hello world".
>
> This bug manifested itself as a problem with Test::Harness on Cygwin
> Perl. For context, see the e-mail thread around this summary message:
> http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-07/msg01201.html
