I just discovered that some code I have that uses vc-print-log-internal
broke after the literal-pathspecs change; specifically, my code passes a
directory name beginning with "~/" to vc-print-log-internal, and this
had worked fine till that change, which broke it, and I found I have to
wrap the directory name in expand-file-name to make the code work again.
Is this expected fallout from that change or was I perhaps misusing
vc-print-log-internal and was just lucky that it had worked before?
