It was a bug in mandriva bash package, caused by a Fedora patch, actually :)
This patch (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=475229) messes 
with internal completion handling, and introduce spaces and carriage 
return into spec strings, as demonstrated by this output when trying to 
complete on 'sudo chown <TAB>':

+ cmd=chown
+ [[ chown == -* ]]
+ [[ chown == -* ]]
+ done=1
+ '[' -z 1 ']'
+ [[ 1 -eq 0 ]]
+ complete -p chown
++ complete -p chown
+ cspec=' complete -o filenames -F _chown chown
  '
+ '[' '_chown chown
  ' '!=' ' complete -o filenames -F _chown chown
  ' ']'
+ func='_chown chown
  '

I just reverted the patch, and adding a command on redhat bugzilla.
