Yes, if I do COMP_WORDBREAKS="${COMP_WORDBREAKS//@/}" (with
bash_completion commented out), the @ is removed and better my
completion works.

However, that's clearly not practical.

It would help me if there were some way to debug bash (I know there is
a debugger) and tell him to print me any script playing with
COMP_WORDBREAKS but that is something I don't know (hence this mail
:)).
