Well, for each of those proprietary shells listed before, execution of
the script will _really_ halt when "unset ENV" is interpreted,
ie. "hello" will never show up on the screen.  Likewise, running
something like "unset ENV || echo failed" won't work.

IOW, it's not just a matter of hiding the message that says "this
variable is read-only".

Thanks,
Ludovic.
