Depending on your point of view, that's either a usage problem or a
design flaw in the "os" module.

The design of the os module does seem rather screwy in this
area. Since os.environ is a custom mapping type, I don't
know why it doesn't just pass all get and set operations on
to the real process environment instead of keeping a copy
of it.

It's not just Windows, btw, it seems to work the same way
on Unix too.
