Your are correct. That is apparently the issue:
git@pbx:~$ asciidoc --version
asciidoc 8.2.7
This server is still running Debian Lenny.
Not sure when I will be able to rebuild it.
My apologies for spamming your bug reporting list
with all of that. I now have source installs of git
and gitolite installed and presumably working on this
server and promise not to bother you further with
that issue.

That would not work, as commit 6cf378f turned off no-inline-literal, and
modern asciidoc would not expand that "{tilde}" at all. My guess is that
Hugh is using a version of asciidoc older than 8.4.1, which was the
first version to understand inline literals.
This came up already once before:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/198733
where the culprit was older third-party RPMs on RHEL5. It can be worked
around by upgrading asciidoc, or using "make quick-install-doc" to pull
the pre-built versions.
