Bash completion isn't working as expected/before. Variables are not handled correctly, sometime directories are not completed with a trailing slash.

I'm using the ArchLinux package bash-completion 1.3-2 which should be built from the unmodified source of your latest release.

Examples:

* Using 'mv /et<TAB>' produces 'mv /etc ' but should produce 'mv /etc/'. It works correct with 'ls'.
* Using 'ls $HO<TAB>' does nothing, but should complete to 'ls $HOME'.
* Using 'unzip $HOME/myfi<TAB>' produces 'unzip \$HOME/myfile.zip' but should produce 'unzip $HOME/myfile.zip'.

This is not the same bugs as https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/22807

It has different error behaviour and happens without any 3rd party completion scripts (I moved them out of /etc/bash_completion.d).
