Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bash

When using bash to autocomplete a path that contains escaped characters
(such as a space), it will not complete anything once the path contains
the escaped character.

mkdir foo\ bar[ENTER]
mkdir foo\ bar/baz[ENTER]
cd foo[TAB]

result: "cd foo\ bar/"

[TAB]

expected: "cd foo\ bar/baz/"
actual: "cd foo\ bar/"

This problem did not occur in 9.04, but does in Karmic (development
branch) as of two weeks ago through today.

** Affects: bash (Ubuntu)
