It sounds good to me, but I'm definitely not well versed in this aspect
of the interaction between Eshell and Pcomplete (more specifically,
this is a part of their interaction which I find quite tricky), so it's
good that you add corresponding regression tests.

Thanks for taking a look. I've merged my patches as e7d0aa248e. We can leave this open though to discuss what to do about the Pcomplete side of things. I think we can remove the workaround for Emacs 29, but maybe we want some additional changes.

(It would also be nice to add some more Pcomplete support on the Eshell side. For example, when completing arguments to 'echo', Pcomplete shows options for the real /bin/echo, instead of showing options for the built-in function 'eshell/echo'.)
