Consider that both sbuild and pbuilder have HOME pointing to something
non-existent.

This feels quite buggy behaviour. I suggest you consider this another
bug in your package.

By all means, I suggest instead having one build with an existent and
writable HOME, and one with a non-existent one (this leaves out the case
of an existent but not writable, though).
