I can't reproduce that with bash
thorsten@tkampe[~]$ ca<TAB>
cabinet.dll cal calwin32.dll cat.exe
cabview.dll cal.exe capisp.dll catsrv.dll
cacls.exe calc.exe captoinfo.exe catsrvps.dll
cadaver.exe caller case catsrvut.dll
thorsten@tkampe[~]$ ca
So cat is only listed once (as cat.exe) (cal is listed twice because I
aliased it to "cal -m").
