The fix is to only override foundcs if both iw_compspec is not null

Thank you for this patch. I first ran into the issue with 5.0-beta2
another way: I noticed that my default completion spec with -D as
suggested by the Bash manual page was no longer working:
_completion_loader()
{
. "/etc/bash_completion.d/$1.sh" >/dev/null 2>&1 && return 124
}
complete -D -F _completion_loader -o bashdefault -o default
In 5.0-beta2, after running this code, for any command with no
completion specs defined in /etc/bash_completion.d, completing an
argument does nothing.
Your second patch does not correct that, but it looks like that's
because a non-zero `foundcs` is coerced to 1 in it, when there are other
meaningful values for the integer as the first parameter for
`pcomp_set_readline_variables(int, int)`.
The attached patch is my own attempt, which seems to correct my issues
as well as the one you raised in this post. Long-time user, first-time
poster...

Subject: [PATCH] Corrections for initial word completion logic
5.0-beta2 includes a correction for the new -I option to the `complete`
builtin:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2018-11/msg00035.html>
However, some custom command completion was broken by this due to an
incomplete check for the exceptional midword condition, for which a fix
was offered here:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2018-11/msg00088.html>
This patch adjusts the latter fix by preventing coercion of a value of
foundcs that happens to be *greater* than 1 for this block, which also
fixes default completion with -D.
