Nice removal of code @ekohl.
What do you think about confining the fact to osx and linux? I noticed the test just checks for nil when :kernel is Windows.

Today there's also fact for AIX and I'd expect this code to work on any unix (like Solaris). However, I can't test that since I don't have access to those systems. Any you could confine it to non-Windows but I think this is effectively the same.
This uses Ruby's Etc library to determine the root home. This avoids shelling out and writing multiple implementations.
