--- Comment #5 from Simon Josefsson <simon at josefsson.org> ---
I recall some other code that consider HOME potentially
attacker-controller and use `getpwent` to get a "trusted" path to the
user's home directory.  This may be an option here?

Still, it is valid to have /etc/passwd home folders with SPC in the
name, so things shouldn't break on that.
