Yes, but it was still not 100% correct. See:
    <http://core.tcl.tk/tcl/artifact/139ea39634?ln=58-60>

This special handling of env(ComSpec) was broken by
the [219226] bugfix: On Windows, if env(ComSpec) is
already set, setting env(COMSPEC) to the same
value doesn't change anything: internally the key was still
named "ComSpec". The only reliable way to change
env(ComSpec) to env(COMSPEC) is unsetting the old
one first.

Fixed that now (both in core-8-5-branch and trunk), so
if one day [219226] will be backported to 8.5 we won't
have surprising test-failures any more.
