Hm, I haven't found any unusual behavior here, so I guess, I need an
example.

I have only a bash-2.01.1 here but that version shows the behavior to
list the matches only on the third TAB: 1) insert unambiguous prefix,
2) do nothing, 3) show list. If the unambiguous prefix was completely
typed (not automatically inserted), it first does nothing and shows
the list on the second TAB. So I'd vote for removing the test, see the 
patch below which also fixes a typo in your patch. Otherwise using
BASHAUTOLIST will be the same as LISTAMBIGUOUS+AUTOLIST if the
unambiguous prefix had to be automatically inserted.

Bye
 Sven
