Hi All,

In cygwin bash, file completion works for relative path, e.g.
	$ cd path1/path2/pa<tab>
works fine. But, it doesn't work for absolute path, e.g.
	$ cd d:/path1/path2/pa<tab>
wont work.

Any one knows why? Is it more difficult for absolute path than for relative
path? Is it because the drive letter?

Thanks,
-wyang
