I've found the actual problem -- it's my ~/.inputrc. Which is read in by
libreadline at some point (determined this using ltrace).
Once I comment out the following two lines from ~/.inputrc, everything
works fine on
HEAD + HEAD-unset-TERM-in-tab-completion-test.patch:
set colored-completion-prefix on
set colored-stats on
