It looks to me like your quotes are getting lost somehow. I was able
to use that very snippet on every Mac to which I have access.
Obviously, $HOME was expanded correctly, so that's not a problem, but
there's something really odd about the double-quotes not being
honored.
You might try the C-escape syntax (note prefixed $):
cd $'/Users/byrnejb/Library/Application Support'
Which $SHELL are you using?
Does your shell rc file have any funky options set like rcquotes or
nonstandard $IFS?
