Tilde Expansion
If a word begins with an unquoted tilde character (`~'),
all of the characters preceding the first unquoted slash
(or all characters, if there is no unquoted slash) are
considered a tilde-prefix.
And it seems that the tilde in the above example isn't considered at
the beginning of a word.
