Bash Version: 3.0
Patch Level: 16
Release Status: release

Description:

Using the "read" builtin with readline and timeout breaks autocompletion.
On their own, timeout and readline options are fine; this bug only occurs
when they're used together.
I've tried this with bash 2 and 3, and across different Linux vendors.

Repeat-By:
[ effects due to readline's "show-all-if-ambiguous off" not shown ]
$ bash[TAB]
bash     bash3    bashbug  
$ read -e -t 1
[type nothing, times out after 1 second]
$ bash[TAB]
[ nothing happens, no completions listed ]
