Initial Comment:
I'm on Mageia Linux 5 Cauldron using bash-completion-2.1-6.mga5 and after I do this:

shlomif at telaviv1:~$ echo $'#!/usr/bin/perl\nprint "Hello\\n";' > myperl.pl
shlomif at telaviv1:~$ perl -l m[tab]

The [tab] does not complete. perl -l [tab] does not complete either.

OTOH doing:

shlomif at telaviv1:~$ perl -l myperl.pl 
Hello

shlomif at telaviv1:~$ 

Works fine.

Please look into fixing it.
