I'm still seeing the problem, but my recipe was off.  Try this instead:

1. mkdir /tmp/emacsbug-foo1 /tmp/emacsbug-foo2
2. Run `emacs -Q'.
3. Type: `C-x C-f /tmp/emacsbug-foo TAB'
4. Emacs creates a new window for the completions, but puts the cursor
  in the wrong window (it's back in the original window, not
  *Completions* or the minibuffer.

It seems to be important that there is more than one completion for the current 
prefix string, presumably so emacs will create the *Completions* buffer. That 
was true on my system but probably not generally true.

With this recipe, it still happens in revno 109117.

Thank you.
