+This code path should only be called when USERPROFILE or
+one of USERNAME/USER/LOGNAME is not set. Which should not usually be the case
+when using git-annex on windows.
+
+However, since we know that won't work on Windows it might as well not even
+try.. So I've made it instead print an error that indicates which
+environment variables need to be set.
+
+Can you please download the windows daily build from
+<http://git-annex.branchable.com/install/windows>, and see what this new,
+better error message says?
