Frankly, I don't know why I wanted it to be executable. Perhaps I 
thought that if it wasn't bash would not load it, but apparently, that's 
not true. BTW, I have another executable file there, but the majority isn't.

# find /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/ -type f -executable
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/vsh
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/perf

# find /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/ -type f \! -executable | 
wc -l
576
