On Linux you can trace all the getenv calls with ltrace. It only
works on ELF files, not sh scripts:
% R CMD ltrace -e getenv `R RHOME`/bin/*/R
libR.so->getenv("R_HOME")
= "/home/R/R-3.4.3/lib64/R"
libR.so->getenv("R_TRANSLATIONS")
= nil
libR.so->getenv("R_PLATFORM")
= "x86_64-pc-linux-gnu"
libR.so->getenv("R_PAPERSIZE")
= "letter"
libR.so->getenv("R_PAPERSIZE")
= "letter"
libR.so->getenv("R_PRINTCMD")
= "lpr"
libR.so->getenv("R_RD4PDF")
= "times,hyper"
