First of all, you must have removed `:' from $COMP_WORDBREAKS, because
you won't get any matches unless you have.
I can't reproduce this behavior using bash-4.2.20 (after modifying
COMP_WORDBREAKS); I get `changed' as the completion in both cases.
Have you done `set -x' to get an idea of what's happening when the
completion function runs?
