Summary: Strange readline completer behaviour

Initial Comment:
I have enabled readline completing in my .pythonrc file to which PYTHONSTARTUP
points to. However, when I hit TAB twice in interactive mode, completer
displays the contents of the current directory, not Python's namespace.
I have built Python with readline 4.1-1 on Debian 2.2R6.


root@debian:~# cat .pythonrc
import readline
readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")
root@debian:~# python
Python 2.2 (#3, May  7 2002, 05:48:48) 
[GCC 2.95.2 20000220 (Debian GNU/Linux)] on linux2

>>> 
.bash_history  .profile       batch          extensionTest  todo
.bash_logout   .pythonrc      builds         musketti.txt   
.bashrc        bash.output    debs           temp

Chuck an "import rlcompleter" in there too.
