A package I am building fails multiple tests with the following error:
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/homeless-shelter'

It is trying to make subdirectories to the builder's $HOME directory,
which does not exist. Is there a standard workaround for this?

You can use (setenv "HOME" "/tmp").

Try `git grep -w setenv | grep -w HOME` for examples :-)
