>From what you people have been saying is that I can't pass in a automatic
varible because putenv uses that space, right?
This seems to be a dumb way to go.  Why doesn't putenv just alloc a new
spot for the enviroment varible to go? (Like mine does.)
But if I do understand this right - I have to make several global or
static varible just to handle space for the enviroment.  This to me 
seems to make things clutter up.
