Did fix that - changing function call to GNU style and "suffix_from_env" to local variable. The corresponding patch is attached.

The usual GNU style is "f (x)" rather than "f(x)" for function calls. Also, avoid side effects in an "if"; just have the then-part with a local variable "suffix_from_env" and put the subsidary if after that.
