---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0004470) shware_systems (reporter) - 2019-07-03 16:22 http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1267#c4470 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I believe it is UP shaded because embedded systems may not maintain a getpwnam() file, and take advantage of the unspecified behavior allowance of HOME being unset to replace the tilde with an arbitrary absolute path constant. Systems conforming to the UP option are required to maintain that file, I believe, so a valid value for HOME is always plausible and shouldn't be unset, or even a null string.
