Is there a way to simulate "su -" to clear the environment or clear
individual entries?

Can the environment be set by cfengine (I know I can prepend "X=y" to
the command line but then it has to be escaped and quoted)?  Can an
environment entry be incremented (e.g. add "/x/y/bin" to the PATH)?

I didn't see a way to do any of this in the manual.  There's just the
getenv() function.

Thanks
Ted
