Hi,

I have a problem with tab-completion in the master branch when running 
on windows with pyreadline. If there are both magics and regular 
functions matching I get a list of matches but the line I started with 
is removed, if there is only magics or regular matches it works as 
expected. I think in 0.10 or earlier magics were only matched whith an 
explicit % at the beginning of the line.

example:
In [1]: r
%reset           reversed         raw_input        %rehashx
%rep             reduce           reload           round
return           repr             range            README.txt
raise            %run             ren              %r
%reload_ext      %reset_selective rmdir

In [1]:

with longer string

In [1]: res
%reset           %reset_selective

In [1]: %reset


Is the behaviour the same on Linux?
