How far down the road of giving make-executed commands a `standard'
environment instead of the user's environment do you want to go?
(Personally, I think that's the wrong road to go down; I don't like
unsetting of $ENV.)
For example, are you going to unset $PATH too? This is not a
rhetorical device; I really don't see why you would unset ENV but not
PATH.
