Subject: [ruby-core:77858] [Ruby trunk Bug#8004] Open3 not finding binaries when PATH env var is passed as first arg

Issue #8004 has been updated by Josh Cheek.


On my computer, the reason for this is:

It should have found the path here: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/c7e99cbfc8dea00ffa5d0a286ea484e90e789df4/process.c#L2193

But notice the second argument, 0, which causes `dln_find_exe_r` to look at the environment variables to get the `PATH`, and thus the PATH that is set in `eargp` is not used.
