Description:
------------
Actually, when using a custom completion function with
readline_completion_function(), if this custom completion function does not
find any match, it falls back to the default filename completion.
In order to prevent this behaviour, the C API of readline provides a variable
named "rl_attempted_completion_over". Defining this variable to a non-zero
value disables the uses of the default filename completion.
This variable is not exposed to PHP and the filename completion cannot be
bypassed. The provided patch exposes this variable to PHP, and allows to use
readline_info("attempted_completion_over", 1) in the PHP completion function to
prevent default filename completion to occurs.
There is a bug report but it s closed since 2005

Another bug report for this https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=48089 with a patch
which does the job but in a wrong way, imo.
