Log:
  rc.subr: Implement list_vars without using 'read'
  
  'read' pessimistically read(2)s one byte at a time, which can be quite
  silly for large environments in slow emulators.
  
  In my boring user environment, truss shows that the number of read()
  syscalls to source rc.subr and invoke list_vars is reduced by something like
  3400 to 60.  ministat(1) shows a significant time difference of about -71%
  for my environment.
