Description:

If you put 'set glob-complete-word off' in .inputrc, it is not obeyed
when you first get a shell. However, if you re-read .inputrc (C-x C-r)
it does get picked up.

I don't know if similar commands (e.g. glob-expand-word) also have this
problem; I only noticed M-g because my inputrc contains the following:

M-f: delete-char
M-s: backward-delete-char
M-a: backward-kill-word
M-g: kill-word
M-d: kill-whole-line
M-r: kill-line
M-w: backward-kill-line

These worked fine in bash 2.05, but "M-g" stopped working in 2.05b
because glob-complete-word took precedence.

Seems odd the .inputrc command is not obeyed when the shell is first
started, but works fine after "C-x C-r".
