[OpenAFS] 1.3.70 and windows environment variables

[Stephen Joyce]

Jeffrey,

Sorry if this has been covered already, but then what's the proposed
solution for those of us who are storing roaming profiles in AFS?  Worked
fine with 1.2.x but from what I read below (and what I'm seeing in real
life), 1.3.71 breaks this.

Cheers,
Stephen

The only thing worse than no documentation is incorrect documentation.
