Ah, I had to look this up,
http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME defines the base directory relative to which user
specific configuration files should be stored. If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is
either not set or empty, a default equal to $HOME/.config should be
used.
So not quite the same as $HOME
