With this patch in place I can do absolute directories, but paths that
use tilde for home don't work.  They give the same errors as before
with the /tmp/ pathname that includes the date and everything.  That
date output is the same produced by 'ls -lnd /' which it appears is
being executed from tramp.el (tramp-get-ls-command).  There are a lot
of references to "drwxr-xr-x  17 0  0  512 Feb 21 15:49" which is
precisely the output of 'ls -lnd /'.  Perhaps that is not relevant,
but anyway attached is a new debug log for when I try to use tilde in
a path name.

It seems like we're heading in the right direction, thanks for the
help so far.
