Backwards breaking change for setEnv

I like your suggestion, sounds good to me. The delete semantic always seemed like a gotcha rather than a feature On Tuesday, August 16, 2016, Edward Z. Yang javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','ezyang@mit.edu');> wrote:

Hello all,

I wanted to bring this bug to the attention of the CLC

https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12494#ticket

I propose that we change 'setEnv k ""' to set the environment variable to an empty string, rather than delete the environment variable. The existing behavior was motivated by a Windows "quirk" that actually doesn't exist (details in ticket.)
