It seems that you want the completion script promoted out of contrib. Otherwise, you're asking for it to be treated special with respect to everything else in contrib and have the top level Makefile be aware of it and add it to the main targets.

The promotion I have no problem with as long as the install location is not somewhere where any shell will find it without a config setting in the user's shell. Leaving it in contrib and and adding it to top level Makefile, I do have a problem with.
