Need help with completion in Bash V1.03 on SUN.

I have installed Bash V1.03 on SunOS 4.  Everything seems to work
quite well except for the filename completion.   It does not seem to
handle the cursor correctly.  Supposing I want to do a completion of
the file "Makefile"

ls Ma<tab>

Bash responds as follows:

ls Mals Makefile.

Somehow it forgets to go back to the beginning of the line or something.
Has anybody had this experience?  The same source code compiled under
Ultrix on a DECstation 3100 seems to work just fine.

Thanks.
