[Gnu-arch-users] problems with bash-complete: doubling prefix@

Try the following:  say, you have an archive address@hidden
(from http://mirrors.sourcecontrol.net/-"-/ where
tlacontrib--devo--1.2 contains bash-complete).  You want to browse it.

tla abrowse jblack   
TAB
tla abrowse address@hidden 

# trailing space after 2004, all is fine...  yet!

now, backspace over some characters in the tail and TAB again:

tla abrowse address@hidden
TAB
tla abrowse address@hidden

So, the PREFIX before @ doubles upon two completions.

I first noticed it when created archives with names address@hidden and
address@hidden
Then teh second TAB doubles the prefix 1 even earlier:

tla abrowse 1
TAB
tla abrowse address@hidden
y
tla abrowse address@hidden

The code in tla-bash-complete, aside from forgetting 0-9 in _archives,
has no special treatment for @.  But @ appears heavily used as a
parameter.  I wonder whether this is a bug in bash...  And I have the
latest bash 3.00.  Any ideas as to what may be going on/how to
alleviate it (backlashing something)?

Cheers
Alexy
