User's Home Directory

How can you get the user's home directory in 5.2?

(user-homedir-pathname) returns the user's home directory in CCL, but  
in MCL it returns the MCL folder.  This is not a error.  The HyperSpec  
says the value returned is implementation dependent.

In RMCL I can use Brendan Burns'  bsd.lisp, which cleverly lets you  
run shell commands.  But that code needs some updating for 5.2.

Is there another way of doing this?
