Yes, this is because "flex" is tried first, and returns "sys" because it 
contains two "s".

With that setting (flex basic), everything works perfectly with C-x C-f 
/ssh TAB, after which you see "ssh: sshfs: sshx:", and with C-x C-f /ssh: 
TAB, after which you see the hostnames.

With (substring basic), C-x C-f /ss TAB is completed and becomes /ssh.
