What difference does that make? enable -a prints all builtins, and does
not modify their state unless told to do so.
Why not try out something like the following and see what you
think:
builtin()
{
case $# in
0) enable -a ; return 0 ;;
*) command builtin "$@" ;;
esac
}
That might be enough to make it work for you.
