The InitVariableParsing () function has already been removed entirely in V3+ to prevent issues like this. I strongly believe this is the right direction. It is only a matter of time before someone else modifies the global and forgets to call InitVariableParsing ().
Furthermore, VariablePei has already added a parameter to most of the equivalent functions implemented in that driver so there's some potential to further consolidate the variable parsing implementation in the future.
