That's where I figured it would be. It ain't there. :-) I've searched
in the places I would expect to find it and several others that seemed
like they'd be worth a shot (/etc/bash.bashrc, /etc/bash_completion,
/etc/bash_completion.d, /etc/profile.d and of course, /etc/profile).
Scored a big zero for my efforts.
Is there somewhere else that it's likely to be hiding?
