The Bash completion script should be usable from Zsh as well, and Zsh
only supports 'declare -f' but not '-F', see 06f44c3cc5 (completion:
make compatible with zsh, 2010-09-06).  The Zsh version included in
the 16.04 based LTS setup that I have at hand doesn't yet seem to have
a (for us) usable 'declare -F' yet.
