Subject: 24.0.93; In *shell* buffer, '?' can't be inserted after TAB.

This is with the latest trunk emacs.

In *shell* buffer, if I have files temp1, temp2, temp.txt,
and type as this (<TAB> means the TAB key):

    % rm temp<TAB>

*Completions* buffer pops up and lists temp1, temp2,
temp.txt.  But after that, when I type '?' key, ? is not
inserted in the buffer because C-h c ? tells that it runs
completion-help-at-point.  This is very annoying.  What I
want to do is to delete only temp1 and temp2 by typing "rm
temp?".
