When a test fails, it's useful to be able to inspect the output.

Current Perl versions put '.' at the end of the library search path
@INC, although this will be fixed in a future Perl release. This means
that when software loads an optionally-present module, it will be
looked for in the current working directory before giving up. An
attacker could use this to execute arbitrary Perl code from ikiwiki's
current working directory.
Removing '.' from the library search path in Perl is the correct
fix for this vulnerability, but is not trivial to do due to
backwards-compatibility concerns. Mitigate this (even if ikiwiki is run
with a vulnerable Perl version) by explicitly removing '.' from the
search path, and instead looking for ikiwiki's own modules relative
to the absolute path of the executable when run from the source
directory.
In tests that specifically want to use the current working directory,
use "-I".getcwd instead of "-I." so we use its absolute path, which
is immune to the removal of ".".

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.
