Does anybody else on this list use the "bash-completion" package?

I installed it with:

$ sudo yum install bash-completion

becase I missed the feature of being able to type

$ set -o ign<TAB>

and have it expand to

$ set -o ignoreeof

Well, now I've got that feature again (hooray), and a host of other
nifty looking features, such as:

$ ssh <TAB> -- to get a list of hosts to which I might want to connect

Way cool!

Ummm, unfortunately, when I start to type something like:

$ svn info path/to/som<TAB>

I get

$ svn info path/to/someplace<SPACE>

I would rather get:

$svn info path/to/someplace/

IOW, I would like it to expand to the directory name with trailing
slash instead of a trailing <SPACE>.

This is on an FC5 box (which looks like it's running bash 3.1.7.
