I found my own answer to this one:  The nu program does not communicate an
error to the user when it cannot create the new user's home directory (due to
permissions, for ex.), but instead produces an error at a later point in the
process when it attempts to access files that it has supposedly copied into
that directory.

This is relatively minor, but it would be nice if there were a bit more error
checking done.
