Oh well, one quick idea showed what's wrong. I used the following
patch on top of Oliver's:

-----------------------------

       else

Now - scp completion didn't work for me - until I used

   scp -F /home/jean-luc/.ssh/config.special -P 2222 tkoehler@localhost:

instead of

   scp -F ~/.ssh/config.special -P 2222 tkoehler@localhost:

How can I avoid the "~" problem?

Ciao,
Thomas
