Thank you.
gdb completion now completes "foob[TAB]" to "foobar" as I expected.

However it still not work in following case.

$ mkdir sourcecode
$ ls
sourcecode
$ gdb sour[TAB]
     => completes "source". I want to complete "sourcecode".

It seems the completion does not work as expected when the completing word 
matches any command name. ("source" is a bash's builtin command.)
