Thanks Dino for your Windows testing and advice. I put a (slightly
modified) version of your suggestions into version 0.9.5 of home-lib.sl
(on Jedmodes). (We need testing whether getenv(...) results in NULL
before using it in path_* commands. Also, as we are in an #if MSWINDOWS
clause, the last 3 parts could be hard-concatenated to
"Jedsoft\JED\lib".)

The new version just commited to the Jedmodes CVS and should be available
via http://jedmodes.sf.net/mode/home-lib/ within some hours.

Hints, suggestions and test-reports welcome.
