$_SERVER['HOME'] . '/.drush' not found on Windows 7 [#721240]

Drush is unable to find the .drush folder in the user's home directory on Windows 7 machines.

After installing Drush_make in my .drush folder, Drush should find the new commands. Instead I see:

C:\wamp\apps\test> drush make
A Drupal installation directory could not be found                       [error]
The command 'C:\drush\drush.php make' could not be found.                [error]

Did you look at this:

You need to follow the steps carefully to ensure that your paths (environment variables in Windows) as well as the specific path to php within the Drush batch file are correct and recognized when you kick off Drush.

I had similar problems. I am not running the Alpha version (like you are) but the error message is symptomatic of exactly what I was running into.

This issue is similar to an issue solved by an earlier patch that updated Drush to obtain the user's HOME folder on Windows systems (http://drupal.org/node/455590).

The attached patch "borrows" the code from this earlier patch and applies it to Drush's function for locating the user's .drush folder.
