Nope. But if you think about it, if $HOME doesn't equal ~ for Cygwin,
something has gone awry. Given that as context, it really wouldn't

Let's clarify something here.
~ is always the same as $HOME. If you change $HOME - within bash -
then ~ changes too:
$ HOME=/bogus/directory
$ echo ~
/bogus/directory
HOME starts out set to whatever's in /etc/passwd, but you can change
it. For that reason, security-conscious programs like ssh

This isn't appropriate for this list since there are no patches here.

The current version of the Cygwin's port of ClamAV is 0.94-2.
The canonical stable version is 0.95.2.
Freshclam says that the installed version is OUTDATED, and
