I beg your pardon!  I've looked at *all* of the Aztec C calls, and I
don't believe I remember a single one with printf()'s in th.  puts()
yes, printf() no.

One minor thing---(3.4b, anyway)---setenv by itself increases the
size of your executable by 2372 bytes.

main() { getenv(); setenv(); } weighs in at 4700 bytes;
main() { getenv(); } weighs in at 2328 bytes.

Not too surprising, as there has to be a copy of the environment
library structure in there somewhere, but I think that still may
be a bit larger than it could have been.
