ntpath.expanduser() no longer uses HOME (though the doc string still refers to $HOME), so at least that problem is resolved. 

I suppose IDLE could work around the HOME issue in Windows by passing env=os.environ.copy() in the subprocess.Popen() call that creates the subprocess. os.environ will not contain the HOME value that TCL sets in the underlying process environment.
