	This bug manifests itself on a sun3 running SunOs 4.0.3_EXPORT
	and on a Decstation 3100 running Ultrix v3.0. Bash is gcc-
	compiled with gnu *alloc (at least on the sun3).

	First, I type part of an username and press TAB for completion.
	The completion takes a while (our system has >2000 users), so
	I press ^C and interrupt the completion.

	Then, I write the username in full with a trailing slash and press
	M-? (filename completion) to see the user's files. Core dump....
