This is on my ubuntu box at uni:

ivanm at feitpc02 ~ $export DUMMY="~/bin:~/cabal"
ivanm at feitpc02 ~ $echo $DUMMY
~/bin:~/cabal
ivanm at feitpc02 ~ $printenv DUMMY
~/bin:~/cabal
ivanm at feitpc02 ~ $bash --version
GNU bash, version 3.2.48(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu)
Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
ivanm at feitpc02 ~ $

So yeah, looks like it's version-specific.
