I've tried it with emacs -q, and it definitely does not work for me. 

Just to make sure we are talking about the same thing....


1) C-xC-f to open a file

2) Move to a directory containing two sub-dirs, one of which is CVS/

3) Hit "tab". 

4) I get *Completions* with "CVS/" offered as one of the options. What
   I want is for it to ignore CVS, and offer me the other directory. 

Is this what you have?

Phil
