The discussion on this list was that auto-installation in /etc/profile.d,
while possible, would probably elicit complaints along the lines of "why
does bash take so much longer to load now?" (even on my 2.5 GHz machine,
it adds more than a second to the start of every interactive shell).  I
guess now we will have to see how many complaints we get of "why doesn't
bash_completion get sourced?"
