Thanks for the pointer, that's a great package!  Its completions don't
use a common 'pcomplete-here' function (and don't rely on
'pcomplete-args' and other global variables).  Instead the own
"pcmpl-args" code base (and it is big!) is used.

So (analogously to 'pcomplete/sudo') the following function may be used
to complete "pre-inst-env" properly:

pcomplete-pre-inst-env.el
Description: application/emacs-lisp
