Thanks for the info. When you have a moment could you please try building on OS X 10.10 and then testing the result? I assume OS X 10.10 has a file /etc/passwd so you could run something like this: ln -s /etc/passwd . src/emacs -Q -batch -eval '(message "%S" (file-name-completion "pass" "."))' This should output "passwd" (assuming that the build directory has no other entry beginning with "pass"), but if the bug I'm hypothesizing is triggered, than it will output "passwd/".
