I built the latest Insight from the CVS trunk a couple days ago.
I ran it on `jc1' (the Java compiler for GCC).
In the console I type `b java_decode_<TAB>'.
It completes this to `java_decode_option', but then beeps.
If I hit TAB again, I see this:
Completions:
java_decode_option java_decode_option java_decode_option java_decode_option java_decode_option
This is a bug, because all these completions are the same.

Ugh. People in gdb land have been playing with completions to make them
more robust... Give me a minute or two and I'll see if I can fix it up.
(If that's possible any more, that is...)

I've spent the last hour or so looking at this... It's a lot more serious
than it appears. As you'd guess, these are bugs in gdb's completer. I've
submitted two bugs into gnats about the problems.
Sorry.

Thanks, I appreciate that. You did a lot more work than I was
expecting!
