When $COMP_CWORD == 1, and a directory (in ./) has the same name as one of the subcommands, _equery() will choose the directory over the subcommand.

Eg:
$ ecd vixie
$ equery fil<TAB>  ==>  equery files/

genone just informed me of another equery completion bug; posting here as a reminder to myself, so I can kill both of these birdies with one stone.

equery needs to recognize (but not necessarily complete on) the short subcommands (eg. belongs can also be 'b', changes -> 'c' and so forth).

Will be fixed next gentoo-bashcomp release.

pfft package name completion breakout is taking a lot longer than expected, so I went ahead and diff'd the equery fixes from HEAD. 20050121-r1 is in the tree.
