Tested with devel from 01-09-2015 and 1.9.2

Set the following in ansible.cfg:

filter_plugins     = $HOME/ansible/plugins/filter_plugins/:/usr/share/ansible_plugins/filter_plugins

Or any other path with $HOME. It will not work.

I made a strace (thanks to crab from IRC for pointing to check it), and found the following:
https://gist.github.com/Tahvok/99dd7c2e49936bde96d3

However, setting a tilde '~' works as expected.

Other configurations do work with $HOME, such as 'inventory', 'remote_tmp' and 'roles_path'.
