After a bit more digging (see bug#11348 and bug#11607), it looks like
the culprit is pcomplete/cd. I'm far from familiar with pcomplete, and
edebugging pcomplete-entries and pcomplete--entries did not reveal
anything obviously amiss to me, so my current workaround, inspired by
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=11348#26, is to:
(with-eval-after-load 'shell
(setq shell-dynamic-complete-functions
(delq #'pcomplete-completions-at-point
shell-dynamic-complete-functions)))
