Hi all,
I fetched the latest version of slime from CVS today, and it appears to bind the tilde key (~) to `slime-sync-package-and-default-directory' instead of `insert-self' in lisp buffers (i.e., NOT the repl). This change appears to have been introduced in version 1.10 of slime-repl.el.
This has the effect of making it very difficult to insert a ~ into my lisp files, which in turn has the effect of making format expressions very difficult to write. :) My guess is that this was a mistake.
I've "fixed" it on my local machine by deleting the commands that bind it; my guess is that the binding was intended to go somewhere else (on the prefix key perhaps?), but I can't be sure, so I haven't included a patch. But I thought it might be a good thing to mention.
Thanks, James

Yes, that was a mistake. Should be fixed in HEAD. Thank you for reporting it.
