Every process you create inherits a copy of your environment variables, and anything they create gets copies too.

I hadn't expected that would matter to a system service, though! I thought such things usually clear the environment then set a strict one of their own.

NAME
pam_getenvlist - returns a list of all the PAM environment variables SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lpam [ library ... ] #include <security/pam_appl.h> char **pam_getenvlist(pam_handle_t *pamh); DESCRIPTION
The pam_getenvlist() function returns a list of all the PAM environment variables stored in the PAM handle pamh. The list is returned as a null-terminated array of pointers to strings. Each string contains a single PAM environment variable of the form name=value. The list returned is a duplicate copy of all the environment variables stored in pamh. It is the responsibility of the calling application to free the memory returned by pam_getenvlist(). RETURN VALUES
If successful, pam_getenvlist() returns in a null-terminated array a copy of all the PAM environment variables stored in pamh. Otherwise, pam_getenvlist() returns a null pointer. ATTRIBUTES
