I considered the same thing with an existing GOBIN env var. I did actually test it and found it worked as expected.
Omg, color me surprised!
Items earlier in the list seem to have higher priority.
I'd drill deeper into this to find out why if I had the time, but in any case, are you sure you want to rely on such brittle, undocumented behavior? Goerzen's MissingH has an addToAL that's perfect for the job: origEnv <- getEnvironment let clobberedEnv = addToAL origEnv "GOBIN" dest I prefer not to use setenv, because I want to exec into the binary later
without GOBIN clobbered, which means keeping the current environment pristine. Good point about it not matching the Python version, but then a few other things don't either now. :)
Fair enough. :) -- Kim-Ee
