I have played a bit with Wine this week-end, and it appears that the
home directory is defined on win32 by a registry key.

Something like "Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\
\User Shell Folders\\Personal".

I'm a win32 illiterate, so you should definitely wait for confirmation
from somebody who knows what he's talking about, but I thought a heads
up would be useful.
