I don't think adding the same 7 lines to 4 functions is big,
nor something that should be split into more than one commit.

Right.
I think running tests should not interact with HOME at all,
and certainly should not write there.
(Perhaps test/Makefile should export a temporary HOME,
but tests can still be run not via the Makefile.)
