Ok, found it:

Is this still the case?  On my system (Debian Lenny), I don't have
the bash-completion package installed (maybe that explains my error
previously), but packages like subversion have installed their own
completion files: /etc/bash_completion.d/subversion.

So I'm a little confused as to the state of the art here. :-)

Looks like it would be safe to install our bash_completion scripts as
part of our own packages, if subversion does it.
