There are bugs in exUserFolder that affect its use in the root folder. This
patch fixes them for me:

The received wisdom (in the XUF FAQ) is based around the idea that a bug or
interface change could break XUF and lock you out of the root folder until
the bug is fixed. I think that is bogus: if you put XUF and all your data in
a sub-folder, then the same bug would lock you out of that sub folder. What
good does it do you to be able to access the root folder (but not the
subfolder) when there is no data there?
