Apparently I need this if I want to extend git-service (ie: ssh to user
git), and for gnunet-service which requires some directories to be
present in $HOME which normally are there for users as far as I remember.
[PATHS]
SERVICEHOME = /var/lib/gnunet is not working. I could of course create
.config to ~maybe~ satisfy it, but I find this patch useful, as it will
allow me to write less code.
