Please update it to use the current indentation (no tabs, indent step 4
spaces).
It uses "_have" instead of "have", is that a typo?
--outfile and --infile should probably be removed from the latter "case"
block's last glob because they have separate cases above it.

But isn't this one of the features that can be easily used just by guarding it
with a ${BASH_VERSINFO[0]} check? For example instead of blindly doing the
compopt, do something like
[ ${BASH_VERSINFO[0]} -ge 4 ] && compopt -o nospace
(Current bash-completion sets the $compopt variable with the intention for it
to ease this task; unfortunately it's pretty much useless at the moment
because it gets unset at and of bash_completion and is thus only available at
parse time, not runtime. And we have plans to drop a bunch of global
variables that clutter people's envs so I haven't bothered to "fix" it.)
