I see that the recipe’s ‘pre-check’ phase does:
(setenv "HOME" (getcwd))
so $HOME should actually be /tmp/nix-build-xxx, not just /, no?
Yes, but I think it uses getpwent() or something that does not use
$HOME to retrieve the home directory in this case.
Here’s what I see, with nscd turned off (this uses getpwnam(2)):

Normally the chroot environment has all that too. And indeed, the
equivalent of the above Python snippet seems to work:
