You might try adding the following to your .jedrc file:

define startup_hook ()
{
   variable newb = "*scratch*";
   loop (buffer_list ())
     {
	variable b = ();
	variable file = buffer_filename (b);
	if (file[-1] == '~')
	  {
	     if (b == whatbuf ()) sw2buf(newb);
	     delbuf (b);
	  }
	else if (file != "") newb = b;
     }
}


Thanks, --John
