Really?  I always thought that the leading slash in "/media" causes
Emacs to disregard the "~/" part, and interpret the rest as relative
to "/", the filesystem root?  When I type '/' on my system, Emacs
gives the preceding "~/" part a shadow-y color (and on a TTY places it
in {..}), to show that it is being ignored.

How come Richard gets ~//media instead? he should get /media, without
the leading "~/".  What am I missing?
