I think in this case it wouldn't help; as I understood the situation from carnil's and jawnsy's tests, sbuild (1) adds a line to /etc/passwd which is then read with getpwuid($<) by vendorlib but (2) doesn't mount the home directory later. A temporary $HOME in the build chroot wouldn't match the first one. In the other cases, where the test suite uses $HOME, having a temporary directory and the variable set might indeed be nice. Since I don't know sbuild, I'd rather see someone else bringing this up with the sbuild maintainer.
