} I wondered how I can achieve the same thing with the new system?

As far as I can tell, like this:

    _g() { compadd -U ${(M)dirs:#*$PREFIX$SUFFIX*} }
    compdef _g g

Or put in a file named _g somewhere in $fpath:

    #compdef g
    compadd -U ${(M)dirs:#*$PREFIX$SUFFIX*}

but it hardly seems worth a separate file.
