bash completion bug with 'cd'

[Benjamin Rutt]

I have an animated gif that shows the bug.  If you browse to:

http://bmi.osu.edu/~rutt/bashcompletion.gif

it will show how e.g.

cd $HOM<press TAB>

will expand to

cd \$HOME

I think this is a bug in the method:

_cd()
{
        local IFS=$'\t\n' cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]} i j k
[...]
}

My version is
