Hanspeter,
        The cvs expansion works here under the fink bash…

bash-4.3$ cvs co[TAB]

becomes

bash-4.3$ cvs commit

I'm not surprised that the custom fink related completions have issue. We
really need to submit those upstream in bug reports and let bash-completion
developers analyze their coding.
Again I suspect you are using the legacy system bash 3.2 shell which isn't
going to work. From the readme file in the bash-completion 2.1 sources…

- Use the full power of bash >= 4.1. We no longer support earlier bash
  bash to optimise your code. However, be careful when using features
  added since bash 4.1, since not everyone will be able to use them.
  particular problems. Read the bash man page for details of all the
  the project tracker at https://alioth.debian.org/projects/bash-completion/

So we will need to create a legacy package for bash-completion 1.3.
