Did not have a look at the code yet, but should it be possible to replace envvars usage by some keys in the registry on windows platform and/or %userprofile%/config-file ?
Anyway, my opinion on the patch is that there is no real interest for "generic/self-expanding" config file , and it is even dangerous : I would not trust stunnel if, at run time, its config could be modified by USER envvars...
which difference between %userprofile%/config-file and USER envvars? both are USER owned and USER controlled. certificate and keys also USER private data. and stunnel started by USER owned by USER. if stunnel started by SYSTEM/ADMIN he uses SYSTEM/ADMIN envvars (if needed), certs, keys, etc.
global "generic/self-expanding" config file is ADMIN owned. USER has permissions to substitute some values, restricted by ADMIN.
