[bash-2.05b-1]: Dir name completion started from '.' or '..' appends blank to the dir name instead of '/'


Corinna,

I just thought you should know that bash tab completion of directory
names from strings starting with "./" or "../" is no longer working
properly.  For example, lets say I'm in /usr/src/foo/build and I'm
trying to execute a script in /usr/src/foo/src-dfsd-sdfsd-sdfsdf-x. 
Obviously, the completion would come in handy.  However with the
latest bash, typing "../src[TAB]" returns "../src-dfsd-sdfsd-sdfsdf-x
" instead of "../src-dfsd-sdfsd-sdfsdf-x/".  I did some research, and
discovered that Chet has been made aware of this.  He has graciously
provided a patch to fix this in the following url:

Cheers,
Nicholas
