That's strange. If I read the code of `expand-file-name' correctly,
setenvinv HOME should be the right thing to do for what you want, as
it determines the expansion of "~" via a call to a C function:
egetenv ("HOME") -- which does the obvious.

Could you explain, in what way this does not work?  What directory do
you see, if you type `C-x d ~ RET'?

If not at the right one, please start Emacs like this:

emacs -q --no-site-file --eval '(setenv "HOME" "/User/shug/GNU")'

and post the value of the variable `process-environment' (which you
can get via `C-h v').
