Aliasing is not the only reason for making compinit a function. It also
uses quite a few local parameters, "emulate -L zsh", and extendedglob.
Those are all messy to deal with in a sourced file.
I suppose we could do the usual trick of wrapping most of the contents of
the compinit file in a function definition and then calling that function
at the end ... or maybe we need two versions of compinit, one to be used
as a function and one as a source-able file (and have one call the other,
it probably doesn't matter which is the "outer layer").
