bug in bash completion?

I just did a big Cygwin upgrade, which included a jump to bash 3.00.16(11)
from 2.x.  Completion now seems a bit broken:

[tmp] $ ls a.            (press TAB)
a.el    a.html  a.txt
[tmp] $ ls a..           (extra period shown but not really there)


My PS1 is set thusly:
 PS1="\[\e]2;\H (\u) \w\a\][\W] $ "

The bug goes away if I do
 PS1="$ "

I don't see this on a Fedora system running bash 3.00.16(1).

Known bug?  Problem on my system?  Is there other useful info I could
offer?
