[Bug libc/1973] getenv returns pointer to unallocated space.


------- Additional Comments From drepper at redhat dot com  2006-01-21 18:04 -------
You haven't shown one shred of evidence that this is a problem in the
implementation.  What is more likely:

- the implementation is buggy and millions of people are just lucky

- your one program see this problem and nobody else


There is no x86-64 specific code in the environment variable handling.  Look at
your code, run it with valgrind.  Determine whether you use putenv somewhere. 
If yes, learn about the difference between setenv and putenv.

Until you have a self-contained program which shows the problem do not reopen
the bug.  We are not going to help you debug your appication.
