While getenv() returns char *, the contents should not be
modified. So perhaps define it as const instead?

I guess python implementation handles empty string case differently.

I guess the upper line has a conflict when applied to the top of the
master. I assume this
line is still deleted when the conflict is resolved?

The upper "if" in C and Python implementation diverge
here (Empty string case).

 I guess Python and C implementation diverge here as well, when
OVS_SYSCONFDIR=""

git am says:
aatteka at aatteka-MacBookPro:~/NiciraGit/openvswitch$ git am dirs\:\ dbdir\
default\ must\ be\ based\ on\ sysconfdir.patch
Applying: dirs: dbdir default must be based on sysconfdir.
/home/aatteka/NiciraGit/openvswitch/.git/rebase-apply/patch:121: trailing
whitespace.
##
warning: 1 line adds whitespace errors.

Also, appplying on top of the master gives me a conflict.

Does this need any update to other files too (e.g. man pages) on how
environment variables resolve paths?
