Hi,
This is a bit of a corner case, but appears to be a bug.
If one defines a completion function that calls 'set +o noglob' and this
function is then bound to a command, alias expansion is temporarily
disabled when the command is executed.
If the command is subsequently executed again without calling the
completion function, alias expansion occurs as normal.
For example:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] i386]$ set +o | grep noglob
set +o noglob
[EMAIL PROTECTED] i386]$ _foo() { local glob=$(set +o|grep noglob); set -f;
eval "$glob"; }
[EMAIL PROTECTED] i386]$ complete -F _foo -o filenames ls
[EMAIL PROTECTED] i386]$ alias ls="echo ALIAS! $1"
[EMAIL PROTECTED] i386]$ ls ~/foo<Enter>
ALIAS! /home/ianmacd/foo
[EMAIL PROTECTED] i386]$ ls ~/foo<Tab><Enter>

As you can see, in this second invocation, the alias was not used as it
should have been.
