Well, unfortunately for me, you've already pretty much shot to heck
my first 3 or 4 theories of what was wrong. :)

What release of Tk/Tcl do you have installed?

I found the following code in fileselect.tcl, around like 295 in
'proc fileselect.list.cmd':

    if {[llength $dir] > 1} {
                set dir [file dirname $seldir]
                set pat [file tail $seldir]
    } else {
                set pat $fileselect(pattern)
                set dir [lindex $dir 0]
    }

which (a) looks fishy but (b) I don't understand why I can't reproduce
it in testing.  More digging is required, the last time I looked at
fileselect.tcl was like 2005...(and I'm now trying to figure out
if I did it wrong...)

It's a tad counter-intuitive.   Up at the top, lurking between Bindings.. and
Address... there should be a Log button.  It keeps the last 1000 lines of log
around in a Tk canvas object, and then only writes to a file when you select
'Save to File' which will then dump it into (by default) /tmp/$USER/exmhlog.N
where N increments each time you click 'Save to File'.

Recommendations:   Click 'Truncate' before reproducing a problem, reproduce the
issue, and then click 'Save to File' and send the results of that (so you
aren't exporting the entire exmh log).
