It's not a bug, but it might be unexpected. `=' is one of the characters
that breaks words for readline completion, so everything following it --
the empty string, in this case -- is treated as the word to complete. If
you don't want that to happen, quote the `='.
This is explained in more detail in question E13 of the (old, unmaintained)
bash FAQ.
