    The IRONPYTHONSTARTUP variable indeed exists. This work item says:

    Try ipy.exe -h. IronPython uses IRONPYTHONSTARTUP instead of
    PYTHONSTARTUP. It is very conceivable that one may want to run
    different startup scripts for CPython and IronPython. This difference
    in environment variable name addresses the issue.
