This logis is wrong.
It should read:
Variables which have the "volatile" flag set will be skipped
when savong the environment.

This is completely independent, and should eventually even be a
separate commit:
Variables which have the 'autosave" flag set are saved with
each (successful) env_set().
Yes, I made up my mind:
Adding "volatile" and "autosave" is two independent features, this
should be relfected in two separate commits / patch series.
Probably even independent from and preceeding the context series.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
