Hi, two questions about getenv:

1/ should I use sb-posix:getenv or sb-ext:posix-getenv ?

2/ also, getenv seems to behave differently on Mac and on Linux
(probably because of differences at a the OS level):

(getenv nil) used to return nil which I kinda liked, but now on Linux
(1.0.39.15, although I can't tell exactly when it started) it throws
an error (see below). Is this intentional ? On my Mac on the other
hand, with 1.0.39.9, it still returns nil.

Thanks a lot !
