Greetings, after having recently upgraded Cygwin on my laptop running Windows Vista the Bash Shell started misbehaving by issuing "-sh: exclude: unbound variable" whenever I hit "Tab" for file name completion. After trying the obvious (that is, issuing "set +u") and even having success with it, I checked the Cygwin mailing list archives but only found a single thread ending with "Problem solved, use 'set -o nounset'".
Now, in my opinion this only is a temporary workaround, but never a fix, so my question is: is there a real fix for the problem which allows to have "set -u" (or "set -o unset") and tab completion at the same time? This is my third try to send mail to <Cygwin@Cygwin.COM>. The first two times I didn't even get a rejection message, just nothing, but my mail never showed up in the mailing list archives. Therefore I'll this time not attach the output from "cygcheck -s -v -r" but will rather only quote below the few lines from it having to do with "bash". Sincerely Rainer PS: Please also respond via personal e-mail since I'm not regularly reading this list. Thankyou.
