Subject: [guix-daemon] Build user's pw_dir != HOME

Hi,

There is a discrepancy in our build environment, where the build user's
directory is set to '/' while HOME is set to '/homeless-shelter'.
Normally both should match, and it trips some test suite that assumes
this to be the case, as with libssh's [0].

Perhaps '/homeless-shelter' could be made to more simply be '/', or
pw_dir could be made to be '/homeless-shelter'.

What do you think?
