I've used rebol on linux for over 8 years. I never did get REBO_HOME to work.
I've gotten used to a customized user.r which is either loaded explicitly
as in load %/some/path/to/user.r or resides in the same directory as
the executable script. Even with a cgi script, the rebol binary appears to
check for a user.r in the same directory as the script.
I went on to customize user.r with a system path variable and an import
scheme. Code available if you want.
