I am working with pre-built version of ‘gcc’ and ‘libgccjit’ from
Homebrew. So I tried to set the following environment
variables. Experimented with various permutation combinations of these.

#+begin_src elisp
(add-to-list 'exec-path
             "/usr/local/opt/gcc/bin")
(setenv "PATH" (mapconcat 'identity exec-path ":"))        
(setenv "LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
        "/usr/local/opt/libgccjit/lib/gcc/10:/usr/local/opt/gcc/lib/gcc/10")
(setenv "LIBRARY_PATH"
        "/usr/local/opt/libgccjit/lib/gcc/10:/usr/local/opt/gcc/lib/gcc/10")
#end_src

The above are standard location of ‘gcc’ and ’libgccjit’ artifacts.

The exec-path configuration above crashes my Emacs at startup. So I had
to comment that out.


Is there a way in Emacs to get all the environment variables in one go?
I want to compare the vars from two invocations - GUI and CLI. As I
reported earlier that CLI invocation works without any error.


More facts:

The error comes only at the beginning. As you can see in the following
log (*Async-native-compilation-log) that compilation is working fine
later on.

And when all the compilation is done the error goes away; it does not
appear in further sessions.
