I've had funky results from time  to time on  ~ expansion in cygwin
bash. usually it works fine. But sometimes one of the terminal windows
gets into a state where ~ becomes something that isn't all that
intelligible and breaks scripts. I forget if starting a new terminal
fixes it - usually I just quit using ~ until I end up rebooting. Never
really tracked it down.
