Subject: ssh host completion: ~/.ssh/config vs /etc/hosts

Hey,
zsh 5.0.8
I just noticed this interesting thing: if certain hosts are listed in
/etc/hosts then the ssh completion will complete _but not list_ hosts in
~/.ssh/config that have the same prefix.
For example, let's take the following entries from /etc/hosts:
172.16.1.2 testme-backup
172.16.1.3 testme-vcenter
Let's assume further that I also have the following in my ~/.ssh/config:
Host testme-nagios
HostName 172.16.1.4
Host other-master
HostName 172.16.2.1
Host other-backup
HostName 162.16.2.2
Now typing »ssh testme-<TAB>« will list testme-backup and
testme-vcenter but not testme-nagios. Typing »ssh testme-n<TAB>«,
however, will compelte to »ssh testme-nagios«.
On the other hand typing »ssh other-<TAB>« will list both entries from
~/.ssh/config, other-master and other-backup. There are no entries in
/etc/hosts that start with other-.
Here's how to reproduce it:
1. Create the appropriate entries in /etc/hosts and ~/.ssh/config.
2. Start a shell and initialize the completion system:
zsh -f
autoload -Uz compinit
compinit
3. Try to complete »ssh testme-« and observe the bug.
Kind regards,
mosu
