fish: 2.3.1, Arch Linux, urxvt 9.22

Enter complete -C"type p": only functions and builtins will get printed.
type has the following completion definition:

complete -c type -a "(complete -C(commandline -ct))" -x

Can you confirm the issue?

Yes, I can reproduce this one. I could swear that it has already been reported, but I can't find that report currently.

The cause is probably that the inner commandline still gets the real commandline, while complete -C should enter an environment with a fake one.
