----main.d:
import std.process;
import std.stdio;
void main(){
  writeln(environment["PATH"]);
  system("echo $PATH");
  spawnShell("echo $PATH").wait;
  spawnShell("echo $0").wait;  
}

(on OSX if that matters, and I've set my shell to zsh but this isn't the
problem)
export PATH=/usr/bin
path/to/dmd -run path/to/main.d
#this prints:
/usr/bin
/usr/bin
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:... (+ other stuff)
/go/bin
/bin/zsh

The bug is that spawnShell("echo $PATH") should IMO return the same as
system("echo $PATH").
