This manpage shows me functions and structs. I'm assuming you want these used by the offending program or the shell under which the program is being called. In the first case, a person might not have source to the program and if thats the case, it doesn't help much. And in the second case, if the shell sets it, does it affect children of a process (aka fork()'d)?
Thanks for yout time...
