Hello,

I have an irk with Cygwin 1.7.16. The problem is that the autocompletion 
of shell variables is not functioning if I don't use full windows 
executable name of standard linux tool.

For example. I have variable SERVER=a.b.c.d. When i try
     ssh $SER<tab>
autocomplete does not work, but with
     ssh.exe $SER<tab>
autocomplete works. Autocompletion of file system paths works in both cases.

I'm certain that it functioned like expected in some of my former cygwin 
installations. I'm using latest version now.

With Regards,
Jovan Grbic
