Subject: setenv on BSD platforms

Message-ID: <3E40819F.43EFEEEA@veritas.com> (raw)
Is the following a known problem for Guile on BSD-based systems?
I have a script that does this:
(setenv "SHELL" "./program")
and then later in my C program I call getenv thus:
char* pz = getenv( "SHELL" );
The result is "/bin/sh". oops. It does not work
that way on other platforms. Just OS/X and FreeBSD.
(Haven't tried Open/Net BSD's yet, but I'll hazard a guess...)
Why might this be?
