Again I ask if we shouldn't disallow to user-define the "SystemRoot"

Imagine someone has set the variable to "C:\WINDOWS", but the
correct value is "D:\WINDOWS".
No, I don't think we should silently change the value of this or
other variables.
I don't think about silently changing, I think about to *disallow to
set* it e.g. by the put() method, and instead retrieve it by default
from constructor, so it could be always read by the get() method.

I have incorporated much of Ulf's approach into this version.
I agree with Alan about the spec. We could find other variables in the
future that need
to be set, but can have alternative values other than the default. I
think this approach
is the most flexible.
