I think you mean /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/perl... I
think the problem is that it's parsing the next token after -d and
-dt looking for :debugger and never things that maybe there's no
debugger name (see perldoc perldebug).
Whatever you're using doesn't seem to be the Cygwin bash-completion
package. Both x86 and x86_64 install /etc/bash_completion.d/perl:
https://cygwin.com/packages/x86/bash-completion/bash-completion-1.3-1
https://cygwin.com/packages/x86_64/bash-completion/bash-completion-1.3-1
Before we go any further with anything else, I think your next step
should probably be to install the Cygwin bash-completion package and
check what the behaviour is there.
I ran setup and I see a "Keep" for 2.1-1 of bash-completion. I believe
that means it's already installed.
Additionally:
$ ls /usr/share/bash_completion.d/perl
ls: cannot access /usr/share/bash_completion.d/perl: No such file or
directory
$ ll /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/perl
-rw-r--r-- 1 adefaria Domain Users 3569 Feb 9 2014
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/perl
$ cygcheck -f /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/perl
bash-completion-2.1-1
