Verify that the user home directory is valid
If the determination of the user home directory produces a Java File object with an invalid path, spurious exceptions may occur at the most inopportune moments anytime later. In the case in the linked bug report, start-up of EGit failed, leading to numerous user-visible problems in Eclipse. So validate the return value of FS.userHomeImpl(). If converting that File to a Path throws an exception, log the problem and fall back to Java system property user.home. If that also is not valid, use null. (A null user home directory is allowed by FS, and calling in Java new File(null, "some_string") is fine and produces a File relative to the current working directory.)
