Description of Problem:
ProcessStartInfo.EnvironmentVariables.Add converts the variable to lower case.
This is a bug because environment variables are case-sensitive. This same bug
previously existed in Microsoft C# but was acknowledged and fixed, as reported
here:
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=326163

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Call ProcessStartInfo.EnvironmentVariables.Add("PATH", "/test")

Actual Results:
Note that actual environment set is "path=/test" and not "PATH=/test"

Expected Results:
PATH=/test

How often does this happen? 
All the time on all versions and platforms.
