Thanks for taking the time to report this. It's bash that is expanding
the tilde and, as confusing as it may seem at first, the documentation
is fairly specific about how and when it works (see "Tilde Expansion" in
the man page). Changing it would probably break lots of things, so it's
not likely to change now, sorry!
