Dieter,
Here's an app where you can change the value for the key in the
Info.plist to verify that the mechanism works. If you want to use
the 'open' command from Terminal then it seems you have to use the
extension: "open LSEnv.app". Normally though, it's meant to work by
double clicking its icon in the Finder.

I don't know if these are officially supported but another way is:
extern char **environ;
extern char **NXArgv;
extern int NXArgc;
