Victor Stenner says

"On Windows, GetSystemInfo() is called instead of reading an environment variable. I suppose that this function is more reliable."

From my reading, and based on feedback from one of my customers, I believe he is correct and that GetSystemInfo() ought to be used on Windows. (It is available in pywin32 win32api.)
