It does not affect me on Windows. These are the files matcing "test" in c:\:

test av mellanslag.txt             test.doc.PPT
test.html                          test.html~
test.jpg                           test.txt
test.txt~                          test.zip
test1.txt                          test2.txt
test_stor.mp3

If I use normal find-file I can select one of them. With your code
above I can only select the test.jpg file.

My version:

GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2005-06-26 on NONIQPC
