/Users/shug/GNU:
  wildcard GNU
  ls: GNU: No such file or directory

but i assure you that /Users/shug/GNU does indeed exist

> If not at the right one, please start Emacs like this:

(note i changed your "User" to "Users")

and i get the same results.

perhaps this is only broken in the OS X carbon builds?

i think i will try to solve this problem by getting OS X to pass the
correct environment onto Emacs when it starts. until then... a command
line wrapper is my friend.
