[zash-3.0.0] bug in cdmatch for dirs w/ embedded space?



I'm trying to get zsh to complete a directory that has an embedded
space, e.g., `foo bar' (personally I don't like them, but with
mac/win95 filenames it seems to be pretty common to come across).

I used the versions of compctl, cdmatch, and cdmatch2 distributed with
zsh-3.0.0, and invoked zsh with the -f switch. It fails because too
many backslashes get put in the completion, e.g.,

	% cd foo<TAB>
results in
	% cd foo\\\ bar/

Is there a more up to date cdmatch/compctl for this sort of thing? Or
is there a (non-default) that needs to be set?

Thanks.

Here's exactly what I did:

charney$ ~/bin/sunos-5.5/zsh-3.0.0 -f
charney% echo $ZSH_VERSION
3.0.0
charney% ls
foo bar
charney% if [[ -o AUTO_REMOVE_SLASH ]] then
then>     compctl -x 'p[2]' -Q -K cdmatch2 - 'S[/][~][./][../]' -g '*(-/)' + \
then>   -g '*(-/D)' - 'n[-1,/], s[]' -K cdmatch -q -S '/' -- cd pushd
then> else
else>     compctl -x 'p[2]' -Q -K cdmatch2 - 'S[/][~][./][../]' -g '*(-/)' + \
else>   -g '*(-/D)' - 'n[-1,/], s[]' -K cdmatch -S '/' -- cd pushd
else> fi
charney% fpath=(~/.zfunctions)
charney% autoload cdmatch
charney% autoload cdmatch2
charney% cd foo\\\ bar/    # typed cd foo<TAB> here
cd: no such file or directory: foo\ bar/
charney% cd foo\ bar
charney% pwd
/tmp/mdb/foo bar
charney% cat ~/.zfunctions/cdmatch
# Start of cdmatch.

return
