Tricky. I think what happens is this:
complete=i talks about included files. Included files are found for what
is specified with the 'include' option. I don't see any included files
here, so I wouldn't expect a match here. Use 'complete=.' if you want to
scan the current buffer (or even better, leave it at the default value).

Best,
