I can confirm this on a current hardy install.

It is a problem with bash, not bash-completion.

In the given test-case compgen -f does not work correctly:

$ touch "1'1 1" "1'2 2"
$ compgen -f 1\'
1'2 2
1'1 1
$ compgen -f 1\'1
$ echo $?
1

** Changed in: bash (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: bash-completion => bash
       Status: New => Confirmed

-- 
tab completion fails when files have same prefix that ends in a 
quote/escapable-char
