That seems even more magical, I think.

I've been running with Dump's $HOME lookup changed to $PWD for a few days now with nary a glitch.

Unless someone tells me otherwise I'll start pushing for a patch :-)

Can anyone explain to me the rationale of Dump dropping acme.dump in $HOME instead of $PWD?

alternatively, if started with acme -l dumpfile, why not write it back to the same file?
