gnupg2 uses the same --homedir paths, $GNUPGHOME env var, native Windows reg
key, and native Windows portable apps homedir as gnupg1.

OpenSSH expects user config files in ~/.ssh/ where ~ is $HOME, or the home
directory from "getent passwd $LOGNAME", which defaults to /.

They'd better expect $HOME, not /home/$LOGNAME, as $HOME could also be
/u/$LOGNAME, /mnt/nfs/OrkeyDorkey, or /mnt/Network\ Users/Orkey\ Dorkey! ;^>
