Hi. I found that zsh 3.1.4 does not output a explanation given with
"-X" for compctl when there is no completion candidates.
% compctl -X explanation tst
% tst<Tab>
zsh-3.0.5 prints "explanation"
zsh-3.1.4 prints nothing
I think following patch fix this.

However, zsh-3.0.5 and zsh-3.1.4 has different behavior on "-X". So
this patch does not provide perfect compatibility between 3.05 and
3.1.4.
% compctl -X ex1 + -X ex2 tst
% tst<Tab>
zsh-3.0.5 prints "ex1"
zsh-3.1.4 with this patch prints "ex2"
