/*
 * For performance and consistency reasons we expand the _environ list using
 * the trusted "power of two, drop it on the floor" method. This allows for
 * a lockless, single pass implementation of getenv(), yet the memory leak
 * is bounded - in normal circumstances total wastage is never greater than
 * 3x the space needed to hold any _environ list.
 *
 * The only abnormal circumstance is if an application modifies the _environ
 * list pointer directly. Such an application does not conform to POSIX.1
 * 2001. However, we also care about standards which did not foresee this
 * issue. For this reason we keep a working copy of our notion of _environ in
 * my_environ. If, when we are called upon to modify _environ, we ever detect
 * a mismatch between _environ and my_environ we discard all our assumptions
 * concerning the location and size of the _environ list. As an additional
 * precaution we only ever update _environ once we have finished manipulating
 * our working copy.
 *
 * The setenv() API is inherently leaky but we are completely at the mercy
 * of the application.
 *
 * To pacify leak detectors we chain all allocations which are at risk of
 * being leaked in either of the above two scenarios. chunk_list must only
 * be updated under the protection of update_lock.
 *
 * Although we don't allocate the original _environ list it is likely that
 * we will leak this too. Accordingly, we create a reference in initenv().
 * However, we can't be held responsible for such leaks in abnormal (see
 * above) circumstances.
