I certainly hope so, thanks for testing.

I guess some code is not ready to cope with a list of candidate
completions some of which don't match the string-to-complete. Can you
spot which code causes the deletion, and whether that is somehow
related to file-name-all-completions returning all the 3 file names in
this case?

It's not really clear what is correct behavior in this case. On other
platforms Emacs will return only a3, but HFS+ stores decomposed
characters precisely to allow all 3 to match. So I think we should
at least cause Emacs return only a3, and ideally also support the
other behavior as an option.
Btw, why is completion-ignore-case nil on HFS+? I understand it's a
case-insensitive file system, isn't it?

Performance: we don't want to decode every file name that readdir
returns.
