Sorry about that.

However, may I suggest that Documentation/SubmittingPatches could do with a little rewording in this respect?

"Helped-by:" isn't even mentioned.

The idea here was to have as little code as possible within the #if/#endif, as a matter of principle. It may be a little construed in this case, but supposing there's some subtle bug with env_override, or a future change introduces one, having it occur only for certain CURL versions would tend to make it harder to track down.

Good catch.
