Hi
I get the backtrace below. Setting either HOME to something, or adding
an entry to /etc/passwd for the running user, silences this.
I don't think it should fail like this, should it?
Is a reasonable behaviour to assume HOME means "/" when unset?
How to handle missing /etc/passwd entries probably depends on what the
code wants to use it for.
