This is no bug!
If you want to create a link to /home/username the symlink is placed in /home/,
but your user have no rights to do that.
You have 3 possibilities:
1. Add a launcher to "nautilus" on your Desktop, that's the smae
2. use your terminal with "ln -s"
3. start nautilus as root and doing it (with sudo)
But maybe its a good featurerequest for nautilus to have a feature like
"place link on desktop, because here you have no rights", like its
implemented in windows.
