Here it is:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
version="1.0"
xmlns:user="http://mycompany.com/mynamespace" 
xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
 >

<msxsl:script language="JScript" implements-prefix="user">
    function getEnvVar(name) {
       var wshell = new ActiveXObject('WScript.Shell');
       var env = wshell.Environment('System');
       return env(name);
    }
</msxsl:script>

   <xsl:template match="/">
     <xsl:value-of select="user:getEnvVar('PATH')"/>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

PS. And beware of security issues.
