Hi,

Does uiop/os have a function for setting environment variables? I have not found any in ASDF 3.1

I'm not convinced this can be done portably on a large enough number of implementations. Also, the only reason to use it would be as a prelude to run-program, in which case it's not thread-safe, and using /usr/bin/env is safer (though not portable to Windows). That said, if you write it, I'll gladly apply the patch.
