Re: 21.0 beta41, cygwin32, ~init-file-user doesn't work.

However, cygwin32 doesn't seem to handle the ~username convention.
This is handled internally by XEmacs (well, I presume that it is;
passing ~user/file to open() won't work).
For me (on Linux), init-file-user is "" (i.e. empty), so the above
expression evaluates to "~/.emacs", which should equate to the same
thing as $HOME/.emacs (at least it seems to here).
Does NT have any notion of per-user home directories? If it doesn't,
then ~username isn't really meaningful, I guess.
