Hi Fabrice,

You solved it: 
  kpsewhich --expand-var $HOME
gave
  E:\Joes\
and not
  E:\Joes,

which caused
  kpsewhich -progname=latex -expand-var=$TEXINPUTS
to give
  .;{!!E:\Joes\/texmf, ...snip...
              ^^ 
instead of
  .;{!!E:\Joes/texmf, ...snip...
              ^ 
Sorry for causing the inconvenience,

Joes.
