I think it would be good idea if strace accepted NAME=VALUE
arguments before name of command it should run and put them
into environment, so that if I want to see what:
LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 ./somebinary
actually does, I can run:
strace LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 ./somebinary
Similarly LD_LIBRARY_PATH, when I want strace itself use different
one from what I want for the binary, etc.

Roland:
That is reasonable, though perhaps -E foo=bar instead of breaking
either funny-named files or funny-named envvars.  Of course you can
always strace env foo=bar blah and ignore the part before the execve.
