Cool. shells/bash-completion *does* work with pkg.
It would be cool if shells/bash-completion was automatically installed
when the bash port is installed, so that the average user does not have
to do any other setup, and things *just work* out of the box.

It would also give the pkg developers incentive to keep the bash completion
updated and in sync as new pkg sub commands and command flags are
added.

I just tried zsh, and it looks like the pkg completions work by default
with zsh.  Very nice!
