putenv():
/* Create environment entry. */
	envVars[envNdx].name = string;
	envVars[envNdx].nameLen = nameLen;
	envVars[envNdx].value = equals + 1;
	envVars[envNdx].valueSize = valueLen;

It will not work that way. "string" is just passed buffer which can be 
altered any time until the next set|putenv call. It means that you can't 
assume "nameLen", "equals" position and "valueLen" will stay the same as 
at the moment of the call.
