You could use something like:

  map passwd homeDirectory "${homeDirectory:-/home_fs8/$uid}"

to use the homeDirectory attribute by default and only use the uid-based
one if it is absent. You could also do:

  map passwd homeDirectory "${someatt:+/home_fs8/$uid}"

to use the mapping when someatt is present (and leave it blank
otherwise). You should be able to nest ${..:-..} and ${..:+..} to form
complex expressions.

Hope this helps. If you need a more powerful expression syntax, patches
that implement more features from the POSIX shell syntax (or similar)
are welcome.
