According to the Open Group Base Specification (Issue 7 2013 Issue): "The setenv() function shall fail if: [EINVAL] The envname argument points to an empty string or points to a string containing an '=' character." So it seems to me that the issue here is that os.environ[''] attempts to allow you to create a environment variable with a null key.
