Huh... this is surprising to me. Because I actually looked it up in the
manual and vaguely remember that there stood that os.environ is just a
copy of the environment variables at interpreter start and not
authorative and (more importantly) that assigning to that dict
would/could somehow lead to memory leaks.

I am extremely certain that I found that passage, but can't find it
right now anymore (probably staring right at it and can't find it still) :-/

Anyways, I'll give it a shot, thank you!

Best regards,
Joe
