One of the things I have run into is that under a Win32 environment the new
shell does *not* appear to inherit *any* of the environment settings at all. This
was especially evident on NT4.
After much experimentation, I was able to come up with a very messy solution
which involved using getenv() and writing a batch file to execute from within the
shell called from system() to set the variables, but even that is subject to
vagaries since so many settings are stored in the registry these days...
