bpo-37931: Fix crash on OSX re-initializing os.environ (GH-15428)
On most platforms, the `environ` symbol is accessible everywhere. In a dylib on OSX, it's not easily accessible, you need to find it with _NSGetEnviron. The code was caching the *value* of environ. But a setenv() can change the value, leaving garbage at the old value. Fix: don't cache the value of environ, just read it every time. (cherry picked from commit 723f71abf7ab0a7be394f9f7b2daa9ecdf6fb1eb) Co-authored-by: Benoit Hudson <benoit@imgspc.com>
