The problem is a lack of quoting in
/usr/share/bash_completion/bash_completion.
set -x revealed where the problem happens: in a compgen -X -f. $quoted
is used without quotes, so it expands, and you get the first of however
many glob expansions.
There are two unquoted uses of $quoted in _filedir(). Fixing them
fixed my tab-expanding-globs problem.
Don't forget to apply the fix for bug 1390061, too. Another case of
lack of quoting leading to code that doesn't do what was intended.
