Using 3.0.16 or 3.1.17, only "0" is added by completion for me.  So I
end up with "0:0", and further TABs show me the three possible
matches. What version are you using?  Are you using any
programmable-completion customizations?

That's the behavior I see.

That's the behavior you should see if you remove : from
$COMP_WORDBREAKS.
