/*
* Some systems do not have setenv(). This one is modeled after 4.4 BSD, but
* is implemented in terms of portable primitives only: getenv(), putenv()
* and malloc(). It should therefore be safe to use on every UNIX system.
*
* If clobber == 0, do not overwrite an existing variable.
*
* Returns nonzero if memory allocation fails.
