env^R just hung with with coloured wheel. So I forced quit TM and restarted it (from Finder).
The env^R showed HOME and USER set up as expeced. LOGNAME does not exist. ^h for ruby help and running ruby now works as expected.
TM had only been running for a few hours before I noticed these problems and I hadn't been doing anything 'difficult'.
I am happy to poke around some more if you have anything you want me to look at.
Thanks, Dave.

I don't think I was clear enough - $HOME is set up correctly already when I check in both shells (tsh is the one I normally use, but I think TM used bash when running shell commands).
HOME is not setup by bash but inherited from the parent process.
Try type env⌃R in TextMate and see if you have HOME, USER, and LOGNAME set.
You could likely quit TextMate and start it from your terminal (where you have HOME) calling TextMate.app/Contents/MacOS/TextMate directly (i.e. not using ‘open’, as then it would be launch services/the WindowServer process which starts it, and it then inherits the environment from that process, which is likely the process that somehow managed to un-associate itself with USER etc.).
