get_super_prefix(): copy getenv() result
The return value of getenv() is not guaranteed to remain valid across multiple calls (nor across calls to setenv()). Since this function caches the result for the length of the program, we must make a copy to ensure that it is still valid when we need it. Reported-by: Yngve N.
