Hm, probably, yes. But I'd still like to avoid it if they are already in
sync, so perhaps I could just add
if (memcmp(environment.data, redundant->data, ENV_SIZE))
environment.dirty = 1;
after reading in the second copy [using that environment.data at that
point is still ((struct env_image_redundant *)addr0)->data ].
