Thanks for the idea, I will check it with some configure scripts.

But if ~ doesn't work as well, we probably should simply give up on
the default value, at least for the time being.

(Btw, DJDIR~c:/djgpp~ is not a good idea, since the colon would confuse 
Make if it appears in targets or dependency name.  But we can always use 
/dev/c/djgpp instead ;-)
