    There was a bug in my bugfix for polite_directory_format.  I was
trying to fix it so that /a/raymond would not appear as ~mond if my
home directory was /a/ray.  In reality, I broke it so that it would
never use a ~.  Here is a correct (i hope) patch.

    Sorry about this.  I guess I will go spend my 10 minutes in the
agonizer booth now.
