In a hal file, you use the loadusr command. The user module can be anywhere in the $PATH as you say, or you can then specify the complete path to the component, eg /home/myhome/bin/mycomponent
If you use the wait option on loadusr, eg -W, you need to use the named version, eg -Wn mycomponent That's what I do.
