Not adding "d" after "n" is just a part of the problem.  Maybe I wasn't
clear.  The completion for all disks (when pressing Tab on "d") includes
"nd".  Conversely, the completion for "nd" includes all disks in the
system (floppy and hard drives).  "nd" also appears in completions for hdN
where N is a number.

This was actually cut from the serial console.  I'm using today's CVS
version of grub.

 Possible partitions are:
   Partition num: 0,  Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
   Partition num: 1,  Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x82

Anyway, I don't think this completion stuff should be delaying the
release.
