Isn't the main backend linked with msvcr71.dll anyway? Then the
regular putenv should put it in th eenv of msvcr71.dll, and the stuff
that's wrapped through src/port/win32env.c will put it in the regular
msvcr file.

I wonder if you're possibly being hit with the bug I patched the other
day, but didn't backpatch.
(http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=f8bcd7220b1166f7c037ceaf0a53958cbc6a7630).

Can you see if that fix solves your problem as well? (Either directly
or by testing HEAD)

If not, the fix should still go in win32env.c, not directly in auth.c
