Block all use of getenv with syntax-check
The use of getenv is typically insecure, and we want people to use our wrappers, to force them to think about setuid needs. Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com> (cherry picked from commit 71b21f12bece1127b28b404f11f57b4c2d48983a)
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
