When completion-cycle-threshold is set to a non-nil value, completion
starts doing weird things in interactive shells and becomes unusable.
Just one example:
M-x set-variable RET completion-cycle-threshold RET t RET (enable completion cycling)
M-x shell RET (start an interactive shell)
cd /usr/ (type in a partial command line)
TAB (initial completion; `../ ' is inserted which is fine)
TAB (repeated completion; `../ ' is replaced with `.' and an error is signalled)
The error message is something like:
minibuffer-force-complete: Args out of range: 615, 618

I've committed a fix for this particular bug. Bug#12221 still remains a
problem, but that is a slightly different issue.

Yes, for 12221 the completion-in-region-mode needs to be improved.
Still on my TODO, and definitely needs to be fixed for 24.3.
