199    completer and brkchar handler).  This function takes COMMAND, TEXT
200    and WORD and tries to call the Python method for completion with
201    these arguments.
202 
203    This function is usually called twice: once when we are figuring out
204    the break characters to be used, and another to perform the real
205    completion itself.  The reason for this two step dance is that we
206    need to know the set of "brkchars" to use early on, before we
207    actually try to perform the completion.  But if a Python command
208    supplies a "complete" method then we have to call that method
209    first: it may return as its result the kind of completion to
210    perform and that will in turn specify which brkchars to use.  IOW,
211    we need the result of the "complete" method before we actually
212    perform the completion.  The only situation when this function is
213    not called twice is when the user uses the "complete" command: in
214    this scenario, there is no call to determine the "brkchars".
215 
216    Ideally, it would be nice to cache the result of the first call (to
217    determine the "brkchars") and return this value directly in the
218    second call (to perform the actual completion).  However, due to
219    the peculiarity of the "complete" command mentioned above, it is
220    possible to put GDB in a bad state if you perform a TAB-completion
221    and then a "complete"-completion sequentially.  Therefore, we just
222    recalculate everything twice for TAB-completions.
