I used to not know about bash completion, and all was fine.  Then I
read a bit about it and gave it a try, and all was still fine, and
pretty handy.  But somewhere along the way, bash completion has
screwed up, and now various things which used to work before bash
completion no longer work.  Such as

   cd $WWW/<tab>

where $WWW is one of my shell env vars.  It just dings, refuses to
complete.  I have to cd $WWW then cd again.

Or

    vi `ls /usr/port<tab>`

It won't complete anything inside back quotes.
