Hmm.  It's slightly worse than that ...

schaefer<510> functions _foo
_foo () {
        local suf="/ \t\n"
        [[ -n $compstate[quote] ]] && { suf="$compstate[quote]$suf" 
                compset -q }
        _files -r $suf
}
schaefer<511> compdef _foo foo         
schaefer<512> ls                 
don't stop/  rmthat/
schaefer<514> foo '<TAB>
Completing file
don\'\''t\ stop   rmthat/         
schaefer<514> foo "<TAB>
Completing file
don\\'t\\ stop   rmthat/        

Wrong number of backslashes in both cases; that's why the trailing suffix
didn't get added.  This looks similar to the problem we had with _values,
that Sven patched in 16998.

Same thing happens in 4.0.1, by the way, so this is not a new problem.
