Hmm, I'm not sure. Even if the user doesn't want the keylog file feature, the additional overhead in the init function would be just one call of `secure_getenv`.

I was thinking to emulate `pthread_once` somehow (though iirc we can't use that function directly because of the libpthread dependency on glibc systems).
