The home directory must not be hardcoded. Haiku follows the POSIX
semantics for users, including $HOME even if we only use the root
account.
This would break future multiuser support.
Best would be to use find_directory() but it seems not easy with those
#defines.
Seems other dirs are taken relative to the home directory anyway (just
.subversion), so just use "config/settings/subversion".
What's this svn_config_get_user_config_path() mentionned above the
defines ?
