compctl -X

[Peter Stephenson <pws@xxxxxx>]

Zoltan fixed compctl -X some time ago, but I think there's still
something wrong:  it works when listing but when actually completing
it prints the explanation only if the completion failed --- surely it
should print it only if the completion succeded?  You don't want to
be told `Doing completion X, 0 matches' when the completion mechanism
is trying something else, you want to be told when it *has* found
something according to that rule and is therefore inserting the
result.  (I should have woken up to this earlier, sorry.)
