Freddy Vulto cfcf9fae8f Quote unquoted $cur to prevent globbing.
Closes Alioth #311614

Globbing might occur if $cur contains one of these globbing characters: * ? [ ]

The bug becomes apparent:

On Cygwin if the glob-string contains backslashes as well, causing a warning (Cygwin >= 1.7):

    MS-DOS style path detected: ...
    Preferred POSIX equivalent is: ...
    CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
    Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

On Linux, using strace, you can see bash-completion doing an unnecessary `open' system call.

Steps to reproduce on Linux using `strace':

Environment:  Linux, bash-completion-1.0

1.  Start bash with bash-completion loaded and find out PID ($$):

    $ echo $$
    MYPID

2.  In a second bash shell, `strace' the above PID:

    $ strace -e trace=open -f -o strace.log -p MYPID

3.  Within the first bash shell, type:

    $ cur="?"; _kernel_versions

4.  In the second bash shell, type ^C to quick `strace'.

5.  Check `strace.log', here you can see bash accessing
    something it shouldn't:

    ...
    open(".", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
    ...

6.  The above call to `open' disappears if $cur in _kernel_versions gets
    quoted, and you repeat the steps above:

    _kernel_versions()
    {
        COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -W '$( command ls /lib/modules )' -- "$cur" ) )
    }
