That fixes the two examples I already found but the intent was to do a 
more thorough examination of all the variables to see if they are still 
relevant e.g is JRE_HOME still meaningful? What does JAVA_COMPILER do? 
The intent is to report env vars that can affect the execution of the JVM.

Cheers,
David
