Good to have you back though ;-)

Maybe this bug has something to do with it:

   http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=474094

It's closed but I can still reproduce the bug?

    $ mkdir 'album first' 'album second' first
    $ cd 'album <TAB>
    album first/  album second/ first/    (1)
    $ cd 'album f<TAB>
    $ cd 'first/                          (2)
    $ cd 'album s<TAB>                    (3)

(1) "first" shouldn't be in the list of completions
(2) "album f" becomes "first" instead of "album first"
(3) "album s" doesn't complete

Maybe an experimental _get_cword was checked-in the month after
#474094 was closed (2008-05-11)?
