AFAIK this has been fixed in the trunk by the rewrite of the
comint/shell completion to use the standard completion UI.

emacs -Q
 
I'm on MS Windows. I load these two files, in order:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/cygwin-mount.el
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/setup-cygwin.el
 
M-x shell
 
In buffer *shell*, I type lowercase "$hom", then hit TAB. It completes
to "$homE".
 
Dunno whether that is TRT (probably not), but when I hit TAB a second
time, it shows no possible completions. Whereas, there are these
completions for "$HOME": "HOME", "HOMEDRIVE", "HOMEPATH".

The same bug appears in Emacs 22.
