Hm.  The line is
  $path =~ s!^~/!$ENV{'HOME'}/!;
so probably HOME is not set.  The question is, what should this routine do 
if HOME is not set; probably the value from (getpwuid($<))[7] (before $< is 
changed).  What does getpwuid() say on Windows?

The routine is used in the initialization for $spamdport which is run for 
every test.  So you could add a print line in SATest.pm:63.  But it should 
be enough if that routine just doesn't print any errors :)
