Attached patch xpcshell --environ (obsolete) — Splinter Review
We found that the xpcshell unit tests require a cwd which does not exist on windows mobile.  Through various other patches in bug 458950 we have support for --environ:CWD=<path> for fennec.

This support is needed when running xpcshell.exe, not just fennec.exe or xulrunner.exe.  I have a patch that WFM during my testing last night.  This uses nsWindowsWMain.cpp as a shell around main to handle the --environ argument.
I would think my approach for envp is not ideal as it was a quick and dirty hack.
xpcshell bugs are xpconnect bugs, not JS engine bugs.

Attached patch just a little clean up (obsolete) — Splinter Review
perhaps we want to add a call to the shunt to generate an envp in the future, but I don't think it should block on that
