updated service completion patch for bash 2.05a

[Ian Macdonald]

Hi,

Here's an updated copy of my service completion patch for bash 2.05a.

After applying this patch, you'll be able to do this:

$ complete -s foo
$ foo <Tab>

and have bash complete on services in /etc/services (or NIS, LDAP or
whatever).

Basically, the patch just implements getservent() in the same way
complete -g calls getgrent() and -u calls getpwent().

Chet, this patch is a superior version of the one I submitted to you a
while back.

It has one bug, however, namely that attempting to complete on an
empty parameter will return a full list of services MINUS those listed
as aliases (see services(5)).

Full details of my completion stuff can be found at:
