Wrapper: allocate new environment dynamically
Otherwise, if third-party plugins extend newenviron by more than
3 entries, we could overflow the array. It seems unlikely that any
third-party plugin manipulates newenviron in practice, so this
is mostly theoretical. Just in case, I have deliberately avoided
using "i" as the variable name, so that any third-party plugin
that was manipulating newenviron directly will now result in the
wrapper failing to compile.
I have not assumed that realloc(NULL, ...) works as an equivalent of
malloc(...), in case there are still operating systems where that
doesn't work.
