Previous patch shall be ignored, as it was an ugly hack. Below is a patch that

is whether to use getuid or geteuid. Any suggestion / explanation is welcome.

what is emacs doing in this case?


It reads HOME from environment (from lisp--arghhh) if the path is ~/foo, or 
calls getpwnam if the path is ~user/foo.
