  Hi David,

  The odd cast was used as a way to force some systems to let us update
  environ with a char ** pointer.

  In versions of the code later than this, we have had to switch to:

    (*(char***) &environ)=(char**) temp_env;

  as a way to deal with the IBM compiler under AIX not allowing us to cast the
  value of environ.
 
  How does this change work out for you?
