Package: bash-completion
Version: 20080705
"echo $HOM<tab>" gives "echo $HOME".
"cd $HOM<tab>" gives "cd \$HOME".
True in Etch and Lenny.
Workaround fixes:
1) Set the shopt variable cdable_vars (but seemingly this only fixes it
accidentally)
2) Run "complete -F _cd cd"
3) Run "apt-get remove bash-completion" (which only removes the fancy
completion, not the basic completion)
