This is the bug where /bin/sh (ash) verse /bin/bash, on my cygwin ash does not 
expand the ~

bash:
$ echo ~
/home/tanner
$ echo ~/
/home/tanner/

ash (aka /bin/sh)
$ echo ~
~
$ echo ~/
~/

../configure --prefix=/usr --with-posix-shell=/bin/bash  fixed the problem

I've seen this error/problem on the mailing list and confirmed an issue with 
jblack on irc.
