Expanding "foo\ *"



Here's a bug with the new completion system (I'm using 4.0.1-pre2,
but the bug predates this version):

% zsh -f
% autoload -U compinit
% compinit
% zstyle ':completion:*' completer _expand _complete
% touch 'foo bar' 'foo baz'
% bindkey '\t' complete-word
% ls -l foo\ *<TAB>
   (Error beep)
% ls -l foo\ ba*<TAB>
   (Error beep)
% ls -l foo*<TAB>
   (Expands)

So, it seems that the escaped space interferes with the expansion.
