        Huh. I thought Win32 had ENV{HOME} set to "C:\My Documents" or some
such thing.

        There's a Win32 PASS on testers.cpan, but of course I never wrote a
unit test for the auto-MyConfig stuff. ;-) I'll take a look at this soon.

        I'm kind of curious though, looking through the CPAN.pm code before,
I don't remember it coming up with it's own CPAN home directory in a
different way under Win32. If I just missed it and there is indeed some
logic for that, it should be trivial enough to just piggyback off of that.
If there *isn't*, that means Win32 is passing all tests despite that, which
is even more interesting. :)
