According to the online docs
(http://docs.python.org/lib/os-procinfo.html) setting os.environ isn't
safe/available for all platforms.  You can use the subprocess module to
set the environment of a subprocess under python 2.4 but I don't think
there's a simple way to do this and capture the output for earlier
versions.
