Yeah, I was wondering what you'd be doing about that setenv().  The
code around there looks good.  I briefly wondered what would happen
when the environment variable is totally unset upon entry, but then
we'd have the fallback value of action_name(opts) in there, so we
won't have a risk of running xstrdup(NULL).
