} No, the behavior wasn't changed, only the manual was corrected, see

Hm.  As recently as 5268, you were busy correcting the 3.1.5 manual to more
clearly explain the behavior that the 3.0.6 manual still describes.  That
went into 3.1.5-pws-7.  But I just tried it, and even in 3.0.5 the behavior
is the same as 3.1.6.  So I need to correct the 3.0.6 doc.

It was Andrej's remarks in 5873 that made me blame 5871, but I missed 5875.

Does the setting (or not) of globcomplete have any effect at all on the
behavior of the new system?
