Actually, it asks getpwuid() for the user's home directory,
rather than looking for an environment variable named HOME.
See client_cert_cb() in fe-secure.c.

This could probably be documented better, but I'm not sure how.
The average user is even less likely to be familiar with getpwuid()
than $HOME, so it doesn't seem like referencing that library function
is much of an improvement.
