Yes, it's in the Solaris/ sub-directory, which normally comes first in
$fpath and so is used in preference to the Unix/ one, even on BSD
systems.

As to _why_ it's Solaris/_ps for ps(1) and Unix/_ps for handling
postscript: I do not know.

If your OS has stripped the Solaris/ items, then you're missing
completions for gcore, ptree and others, not just the real ps(1)
completions.

Oh, and the Solaris/_ps only handles ps options with a dash, but even
BSDs take those variants these days.
