Subject: bash-completion: TAB always outputs -sh: <( compgen -f -X  -- '...' ): 
No such file or directory
Package: bash-completion
Version: 20080705
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Whenever I type a prefix and then hit TAB, I see the folowing on the console:

-sh: <( compgen -d -- 'Mai' ): No such file or directory
-sh: <( compgen -f -X  -- 'Mai' ): No such file or directory

where Mai is the prefix I've keyed in.
The output of ls is:

$ ls
log  Maildir

The bug happens with any command, be it "cd Mai<TAB>", "rm -rf Mai<TAB>", "ls 
Mai<TAB>" or others.
It happens even when there's no file starting with the prefix.

I think the bug is a grave one because my bash-completion is actually unusable.
