Not accepting: mksh, rcsh*, posh, bash, dash, fish.

No shell accepts this with LANG=C.

glibc+tcc+getenv() call is fine with this name even with LANG=C.

Note: I do not know which standard describes environment variable names and what exactly it says about the issue.

* Plan 9 rc reimplementation, uses name `rcsh` due to name conflict with openrc.
