My old version of FSF Gnu Emacs didn't have this problem, so I'm not sure if it's a problem introduced by emacs 22, or specifically EmacsW32.
The special completion treatment of binary files, including .obj has been a feature of Emacs for longer than there has been a Windows port available. I recall it being in 19.17. The distinction between binary and text files came in 20.1, so that special treatment will have been introduced then.
