Likewise, except for the name. It is more like "pathname"; "userdir" is
stressing only one aspect of the magic we would do to a value that is a
pathname compared to a value that is a string without any magic.

Avoidance of alloca() and c99 dynamic array on stack is deliberate in the
current codebase. Portable use of alloca() is quite hard to get right.
