When you use Net::FTP from a place where no home directory is defined,
the Net::Config code gets an undefined symbol warning in the place
where it is trying to read "$home/.libnetrc".
It would be nice if a defined($home) test could be added there to avoid
the warning.
In case you are wondering, I'm getting this error because I'm running a
Win32 version of perl and having an Outlook "Action" run a script to FTP
some files over to my Unix box when it gets mail on the PC (loads of kludgy
fun :-).
Neither getpwuid, nor $ENV{'HOME'} are defined at that point.
