Daniel informed me of this patch on IRC. I think it's a reasonable thing
to have.  I'd just do it slightly different:

case $skip_global_compinit in
     ((#i)on|yes|enable|1) ;;
     (*)
        autoload -Uz compinit
        compinit
        ;;
esac
(( ${+parameters[skip_global_compinit]} )) && unset skip_global_compinit

On top of that, I want proper documentation of the behaviour and how to
trigger it in `README.debian'.

Comments?

Regards, Frank
