I usually start a new shell and set HOME there to point to some
scratch directory.
The problem with using --init-directory= in this particular case is
that this is a new feature in Emacs 29, so I was initially afraid we
have some subtle bug in it.

So you are saying it should be condition on init-file-debug being
non-nil?
Incidentally, do you happen to know the difference between that
variable having the value t and 'startup'? I don't see anywhere that
we assign any different non-nil value to it.

OK.

OK, thanks.
