The solution is to make this configurable. Let the user specify an
alternate command to provide the exec completions; default to 
 
  "bash -c \"compgen -ac %s\""

Alternatively we could ship a yet-to-be-written script to do this for
us.

Besides, even in the current setup, if bash isn't present then you
simply don't get completions. Nothing breaks :-)

(Caveat: I haven't actually tried removing bash to test this
theory. But it looks ok.)
