The following commit has been merged in the master branch:
commit 876c8e26c162edfa2c24cc298bbe7ed3123d8eb7
Author: Freddy Vulto <fvulto at gmail.com>

    Prevent root PATH expansion proliferating
    The PATH expansion done in `_root_command()':
    
        PATH=$PATH:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin _command $1 $2 $3
    
    stayed effective with bash >= 4.1.4 running in posix mode, causing PATH to grow
    ever larger when doing sudo completions.  This is now fixed.
    
    To run the automated test:
    
        ./run ./completion/sudo.exp
