The kernel does not know about "~/" as an abbreviation of the homedirectory,
that's why it fails. I think you have set some environment variable which
xauth uses to "~/" or similar instead of the full path to your homedirectory.
Check out the output of "set" and/or "printenv" to find out which variable.
