Public bug reported:

After installing 14.04, bash's autocomplete is failing to complete
anything which ends in an escaped character, like a space or
parentheses.

If I type

ls myfile\(

and press tab once or more, nothing happens, even if files myfile(*
exist.

Instead, it should do a unique autocomplete (tab) or list all options
(double tab), like it used to
