Do not disable completion along with pathname expansion
The -f/--noglob shell option is documented simply as: "Disables pathname expansion." But after 'set -f' on an interactive shell, command completion and file name completion also stop working. This is because they internally use the pathname expansion mechanism. But it is not documented anywhere that 'set -f' disables completion; it's just a side effect of an implementation detail. Though ksh has always acted like this, I think it should change because it's not useful or expected behaviour. Other shells like bash, yash or zsh don't act like this. src/cmd/ksh93/sh/expand.c, src/cmd/ksh93/sh/macro.c: - Allow the SH_COMPLETE (command completion) or SH_FCOMPLETE (file name completion) state bit to override SH_NOGLOB in path_generate() and in sh_macexpand().

- On the interactive shell, tab/esc completion is no longer disabled as a side

effect of turning off pathname expansion with 'set -f' or 'set -o noglob'.

- Fixed a bug in which a >&- or <&- redirection could persist past a

subshell in certain corner cases involving 'exec' or 'redirect'.
