[issue1668] -E command line parameter intent

Guido van Rossum report at bugs.python.org

Guido van Rossum added the comment:

I believe its original intent was to only ignore variables starting with
PYTHON, but I'm not 100% sure.  Ignoring PATH seems counterintuitive. 
I'm not sure about THREADDEBUG -- I'm thinking that variable should be
renamed PYTHONTHREADDEBUG?

BTW, doesn't this apply to 2.6 as well?
