We also need to be realistic - if there are no active
contributors/maintainers actively s
Another problem is that completions for bash < 4.1 need to have their
meta-options set during installation rather then during invocation.
This concerns the `-o COMP-OPTION' options: bashdefault, default,
dirnames, filenames and nospace.

Hi,
Irritated by long bash loading on Ubuntu I've made a patch that is
using bash dynamic completion loading capabilities to speed things up.
My results are:
dpc@mutex:~$ time . /etc/bash_completion.orig
real0m0.614s
user0m0.360s
sys 0m0.120s
dpc@mutex:~$ time . /etc/bash_completion.
