> Did `echo $INPUTRC' display anything? THAT WAS IT! THAT WAS IT! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
This variable was set (maybe by some malevolent sysadmin) to /etc/inputrc. It still puzzles me why bash, despite of this, was able to see the keybindings I had defined in *my* ~/.inputrc; maybe readline always tries to read ~/.inputrc first, and after this read $INPUTRC, which might result in settings being overwritten. After resetting INPUTRC and re-reading, completion works as expected. Thank you all for helping and caring!
