Thanks.  I've applied the trivial band-aid on emacs-30 to avoid the
error in post-command-hook, but the real problem is not in the
function that signals the error, it's in icomplete.el where it calls
the lazy-highlight code.  The evidence is that after the fix, the
display shown in those cases that caused the error is not the expected
one, unless you set icomplete-tidy-shadowed-file-names non-nil.  It
sounds like the problem happens specifically when the minibuffer text
begins with a "~/" and there's another "~/" later in the minibuffer,
the one the user types: the code probably doesn't expect that.

Adding João, who I think wrote this code.
