But that has nothing to do with the Cygwin version nor with the
bash version.  sh in Cygwin isn't bash but ash.  Ash doesn't
have file completion.  Just call `echo $BASH_VERSION' in the
shell:

In bash:
$ echo $BASH_VERSION
2.05a.0(2)-release

In ash == sh:
$ echo $BASH_VERSION
                        <-- Empty
