I ran into the same problem with priv-edit a couple of days ago,
and found the solution last night. The first line of priv-edit is
"#! /bin/sh". The problem with this is that on most commercial
versions of UNIX, /bin/sh will be a standard Bourne shell. It seems
that the Bourne shell doesn't do tilde expansion. This means that the
expression "eval echo ~<userid>" becomes "~<userid>", instead of the
home directory of <userid>, which means that priv-edit can't find the
place to put the bookmark files. The solution is to make the first
line be "#! @@@CS_BIN@@@/bash".
