The getcompletion() function adds a star to the supplied pattern to get
all the matches. If the expansion fails, then the star is not removed.
The expansion may fail if the directory doesn't exist or if there are no
sub-directories under the specified directory. That is why you are seeing
a star at the end of the returned match. I will see how this can be fixed.
