Something wrong with _arguments in 4.3.10?

Something wrong with _arguments in 4.3.10?

[Nikolai Weibull]

Hi!

Is something wrong with _arguments and 4.3.10?

Try completing, for example,

pkg-config -<Tab>

the output is completely broken.  It seems that _arguments is setting
state when it shouldn't.

This is on MacPorts, if that helps.

A quick ssh around suggests it was broken some time between 4.3.2 and
4.3.6. It's also broken with latest cvs for me on linux. The latest
change to _arguments was in november 2008.

The only change to _arguments since 4.3.9 is workers/26053, which seem
unlikely to be related.

Seems OK to me with the current CVS.  The only thing I find is a bit of
display weirdness in menu selection, where upon scrolling to the last
screen of choices the "-?" option appears all by itself on the last line
of the screen with the other options (--libs through --variable) in the
top dozen or so lines.
