The wordlist is split using the characters in the IFS special

I noticed that bash has changed behaviour regarding subshell handling,
breaking a script of mine. Now a script with -e fails when a subshell
fails whereas it didn't before. I looked at the CHANGES file and
couldn't find anything about this, so I wanted to ask if this change
was intentional

Hm, compgen appears to behave strange if words contain whitespace.
Well, it splits the argument to -W on $IFS as documented. What other

Thank you for setting me straight! I had checked the POSIX spec
before sending the report but missed the part about the delimiter
having to be immediately followed by newline.

Hm, compgen appears to behave strange if words contain whitespace.
However, you don't need it, as you build the list yourself. Try this:
_mm2() {
local cur files
cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
files=$(find /home/mathias/Videos/movies/ -iname $cur*.avi -type
f -printf
...but then I have to shell quote the file name myself to handle
spaces, brackets of various sorts, comma characters etc. Will hunt for
such a function and see. There are all sorts of crazy helper functions
in /etc/bash_completion, of which I barely understand anything.
