Multiple users with same uid is orthodox indeed. Just out of curiosity -
what environment is this, if it's not a secret?

As a side note I personally think that considering $HOME environment
variable is not such a bad idea. However I think we should make sure
first that this is really a bug that is relatively easy to reproduce in
real-world environments, a not just a hack for single misconfigured
system.
