/** getenv is thread-safe in Linux glibc and in all sane libc implementations.
* But the standard does not guarantee that subsequent calls will not rewrite the value by returned pointer.
*
* man getenv:
*
* As typically implemented, getenv() returns a pointer to a string within the environment list.
* The caller must take care not to modify this string, since that would change the environment of
* the process.
*
* The implementation of getenv() is not required to be reentrant. The string pointed to by the return value of getenv()
* may be statically allocated, and can be modified by a subsequent call to getenv(), putenv(3), setenv(3), or unsetenv(3).
