Yes, that's fine, I have attached a diff for the beast, only improving
pkd_delete, and pkg_info. I also replaced tabs with spaces since the
file seemed to have a mixture, and that's made the patch a bit large.
This is just a heads-up and I don't really intent on anyone feeling
willing to commit this verbatim -- it's night-time here and I'll have
another look at it tomorrow. (And the person with the CC of my post is
the OpenBSD port maintainer for zsh, so he may have something useful to
add.)

pkg_add still doesn't work quite right because it always has some
directories (those matching the pattern /*) in the completion list,
even if my current directory is not /.

PS. I replaced '\'' with '', but maybe that's not portable? Also, I
noticed that in my own script, I had an error for the -l option (I
suspect it's an option that's never used in an interactive shell,
let alone used with a completion mechanism).
