Strange error

When running port from within the Apple Security Frameworks, I get  
this error:

couldn't find HOME environment variable to expand path
     while executing
"file mkdir $macports_user_dir"
     (procedure "dportinit" line 45)
     invoked from within
"dportinit ui_options global_options global_variations"
Error: /opt/local/bin/port: Failed to initialize ports system,  
couldn't find HOME environment variable to expand path

How should I mark this when I report it as an error in trac to ensure  
proper action?
