That's a good idea, sadly doesn't help and confirms my original
observation.
When I try the bove, I do see the completion function is assigned
correctly. However the function definition itself is absent.
$ complete | grep find_ext
complete -F _find find_ext
$ find_ext [TAB] bash: completion: function `_find' not found
$ declare -F _{find,xrandr,rsync,mplayer}; echo $?

As you can see above, it is just not _find; I can't find any of the
other functions defined in /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/.
