What version of Emacs is that? I think there was a bug with this feature when directories were concerned, and IIRC it's only fixed in the CVS code (i.e. no released version does TRT with this). In any case, directories are only ignored if they have a '/' appended to them in 'completion-ignored-extensions'.
