Comment (by Pierre Labastie):

 I've come to this:
 - If a user with name ''lfs'' exists on the system:
   -  rename that user to ''lfsxxx'', and move its home to
 '''/home/lfs.XXX'''. This means that if a user with name ''lfsxxx'' is
 already on the system, we must delete it, possibly after asking  (but I do
 not like that, because it means jhalfs cannot be run unattended).
   -  create a new ''lfs'' user with book instructions
   -  leave everything as is, but warn at the end of the jhalfs run that
 there is a new user and the old one has changed name

 - if there is no user with name ''lfs'':
   -  create it with book instructions
   -  leave it as is, but warn at the end of the jhalfs run that there is a
 new user
