Possibly the same effect. The code in variable.c tests for "PATH" or "Path"
when setting the target environment. It then treats both cases equally.

A handy option for WINDOWS32 would be to keep the temporary .bat (or .sh)
file in case it fails and the --debug=j option is on. Setting the envirnment
directly in there may have a different effect.
