You can run `compinit' to load the "new" shell-function-based completion
system. (We need to come up with a name for that; I suppose we can just
call it "compsys" as that's the name of the manual section.)
Currently the question "is a completion system loaded?" is tested as "is
the zsh/complete module loaded?" The assumption being that no one would
load zsh/complete unless they were going to make use of it. zsh/compctl
gets loaded iff zsh/complete has not been.
The problem is that zsh/complist has a dependency on zsh/complete -- which
is a C-code dependency rather than a functional dependency, so it can't be
dropped -- and that confuses the test by loading the module without any
"form of completion" included.
One possibility might be to split the zsh/complete module still further,
to separate the part that implements the internals of compsys from the
part that complist depends on. (Maybe move that latter into compcore.c?)
