154052 - macos(x) PR_GetEnv should (runtime) use getenv/putenv if they work and _MD_GetEnv/_MD_PutEnv otherwise

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(NSPR :: NSPR, defect)

Description

[timeless]

bug 120866 comment 70 and bug 120866 comment 71 indicate that of course the 
GetEnv doesn't get the environment in MacOS Carbon builds running under MacOSX.

Either getenv and setenv always work for MacOS8.1+ or they work at least under 
macosx.  If the latter, then at nspr init, we can do:

if (work){
  _MD_GET_ENV = getenv;
  _MD_SET_ENV = setenv;
} else {
  _MD_GET_ENV = _MD_GetEnv;
  _MD_SET_ENV = _MD_SetEnv;
}

getenv and setenv exist in 
MPW-GM\Interfaces&Libraries\Interfaces\CIncludes\stdlib.h

Marked the bug WONTFIX.  We don't do MacOS Carbon builds
any more.
