The reason is probably that you are neither the owner of the files
nor is the x bit set for group or everyone. Change that by calling
chmod 755 or chown <yourName> for the files, call `hash -r' and try
completion again.
I just checked that by changing the permissions of my `kssh' script
so that I have no execute permissions.
