Here is how to set up to see the bug: $ cd /tmp $ mkdir -p a/b/c a/d/c $ touch a/b/c/q Now in Emacs, C-x C-f /tmp/a/*/c TAB On the first TAB, a "/" is appended, and then point moves to the "/" before "c". Now type TAB again. At this point, the "/tmp/a" is greyed out and the minibuffer shows: Find file: /tmp/a//c/ ... so now only completions for "/c" are available. I think instead the "*" should be preserved. Often I'm using this feature to try to find a specific file where I don't know the exact subdirectory it is in.
