1. Emacs -q
2. (setq completion-cycle-threshold 3)
3. M-x shell
4. fu <tab>

In OSX, the last step completes to `fuser' ignoring `funzip'. The
completion cannot cycle because of the extra ' ' inserted which
demonstrates one of the failures of completion-at-point as reported in
http://debbugs.gnu.org/11906.
