That is not a frequent occurrence. I see. I don't know whether that happened. But could well have, within the internal file-name completion code. I was testing with input "~" (i.e. not a file name in the default directory), so it might well have gotten to a point where it checked the files in my home dir, though the completion was initiated in a subdir. That btw is not a rare occurrence at all. Dunno whether it corresponds to what you are describing, but it is not rare for a user to change the minibuffer input to an absolute file name in some directory other than the one where the command was invoked. HTH, but I doubt it. ;-)
