Re: autocompletion is broken in restricted shell

I know Peter already committed the patch included with this, but I think
it's worth revisiting:

If you look at workers/38692 there is a URL linking to a security exploit 
that is made possible by changing $IFS.

As I said in workers/41075 I don't think this is useful.  It also is
applicable only in restricted mode.  Looking again at workers/38692
I quote:

If we're already admitting that compsys is too complex to be reliable
in restricted mode, I think we should not have applied a patch that
only matters in restricted mode and that might cause spurious errors
in the far more common case.
