Unfortunately, the recent restructuring of the environment handling had an unexpected fallout: the
wmain()function was not actually used in the MSVC build, but themain()function was picked up instead, and therefore not only was the environment not handled as we wanted, but the_wpgmptrvariable was initialized toNULLand not pointing to the absolute path of the current executable, causing a segmentation fault (reported by @benpeart).This PR fixes that.
