Then tab completion completes to the > "/tmp/iptrafvol/" directory and ignores the iptraffic.log file. This is because completion-ignored-extensions (see "Completion Options" section of the Emacs manual) contains ".log". This has been removed in the CVS. You can use (setq completion-ignored-extensions (delete ".log" completion-ignored-extensions)) in your .emacs for the same effect.
