Thanks for the patch! I also removed startloc which is now unused.

    [EXPAND] Do not split the result of tilde expansion
    
    A tilde expansion generates a valid pathname. Splitting it using IFS
    either leaves it unchanged or changes it to something unintended.
    
    This fixes FreeBSD sh test expansion/tilde1.0 and does not change the
    outcome of the other tests.
    
    This fixes Debian bug #601096.
    
    Example:
      IFS=m HOME=/tmp; printf "%s\n" ~
