It'd really help if you built with --enable-debug(ger-info-modules)
and stepped through, or read the code using a web browser and followed
the logic at e.g. http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey
or you could probably read the documentation for nsIFile.
i believe you'll find that paths must start absolute and that for some
reason '.' and '~' and '..' and friends just aren't absolute paths. I
never quite understood why.

It looks like there's a bit of flexibility on macosx for ~, but the
general rule applies.
