The dup isn't actually needed here as the dereference happens instantly with
interpolation (to_s is called and a new String instance is returned).

Here I wasn't sure but apparently it's irrelevant here, too. Sorry, don't know
enough about Facter in order to be able to help you further.
Btw, rather than parsing /etc/passwd yourself, why not let the Etc module do
the work for you?
Etc.passwd do |pwent|
Facter.add("home_#{pwent.name}") do
setcode do
pwent.dir
end
end
