This relates to zsh 4.2.5's ssh command line completion. I don't know
if this problem exists in earlier versions.
Here's the problem I'm seeing:
krose@jihl ~% ssh krose@y<TAB>
results in
krose@jihl ~% ssh krose@yupa..org
with the cursor over the second ".". Then, if I hit <TAB> again, I get
krose@jihl ~% ssh krose@yupa.krose.org
with the completion "done" (i.e., the cursor a space after "org").
Problem is, when I do
krose@jihl ~% ssh krose@y^Xn
I get
yupa-dmz.valley-of-wind.krose.org yupa.krose.org
yupa.valley-of-wind.krose.org
Clearly, any of them match the original attempt to complete. This works
just fine with hosts only:
krose@jihl ~% ssh y<TAB>
krose@jihl ~% ssh yupa<TAB>
krose@jihl ~% ssh yupa<TAB>
yupa-dmz.valley-of-wind.krose.org yupa.krose.org
yupa.valley-of-wind.krose.org
krose@jihl ~% ssh yupa-dmz.valley-of-wind.krose.org
yupa-dmz.valley-of-wind.krose.org yupa.krose.org
yupa.valley-of-wind.krose.org
and so on, cycling through the three potential completions.
Any clues?
BTW, I've now been using zsh as my exclusive interactive shell for
almost exactly 10 years. Sweet. :)
Cheers,
Kyle

Unless I'm mistaken, this is yet another symptom of an old, old problem.

My impression from the results of the search is that there has been no
official solution committed for this problem. Is that right?

FWIW, I tried this patch:
diff -r1.1 _combination
91c91,93
< compadd "$@" -a tmp || { (( $+functions[_$key] )) && "_$key" "$@" }
---

and it does *not* change the behavior I'm seeing. I checked functions
to make sure the updated version was cached. :P
