I have no such a right. Instead I'll suggest that to maintainer.
However, I think, it's more proper that Gnulib has a workaround. Because
Gnulib provides such consistent interfaces and functionality.

BTW, do you know the reason why `char *string' not `const char *string'
? I think, `const char *string' is more proper, because putenv() does
not modify the content of `string'.

Thanks as always!
