Hi all,

Coming back to the testing machine I was using this on, I see this
problem as well now. I'm pretty sure it wasn't there before, which would
mean it was introduced by a recent upgrade.

Checking the logs shows that I was running 1.7.1 before, and now 1.7.2.3
is broken. Downgrading to 1.7.1 indeed removes the problem.

I've rummaged around in the source a bit, haven't found the cause yet
(and I'm out of time now).

The issue also still occurs with a fairly recent git master (ca209065f:
completion: fix zsh check under bash with 'set -u').
