Please differentiate 

       - Windows
       - Cygwin

I assume that under Cygwin it searches as expected: BZR_HOME, HOME, APPDATA.
and not in order: BZR_HOME, APPDATA, HOME.

Hm. I'm wondering why it has to be BZR_HOME, APPDATA, HOME in any
case? For example I have permanent setting of Windows environment
variable

    HOME

in Windows registry and I would be very upset if bazaar used APPDATA before
looking if HOME is set. You see, the Win32 Native Emacs also needs
the HOME variabale in order to find "~".
