No, providing useful and resourceful 404 (and other error) pages are the best method.

Redirecting users back to the home page could get frustrating for the user. But if you provide them with a nice informative 404 page with a few useful links (site search, thread recommendations, even tags) would be a far better experience.

Would the SE's end up indexing them? Does SEO matter when it comes to these pages?

I used the directions here and added a little customization of my own :

Create a Custom vBulletin "404 Page Not Found" Page, and direct vBSEO to use it. - vBulletin SEO Forums

How do you use it on non-vBSEO sites? How do you customize it?
