Initial Comment:
After typing "sudo /etc/init.d/sshd <TAB>", local files instead of command options(start, stop, etc.) are listed.
The old version 1.2 works fine.

I noticed that the code "complete -p $cmd" has been changed to "complete -p ${cmd##*/}".
Maybe you can check twice: first "complete -p $cmd", and if it fails, run "complete -p ${cmd##*/}"?

Message:
james at localhost ~ $ complete | grep sshd
complete -F _gentoo_style_init /etc/init.d/sshd

So I only have completion for /etc/init.d/sshd, no completion for sshd.

Let me make it clearer:
for any service(not only sshd) in the directory of /etc/init.d
1. "/etc/init.d/XXX <TAB>" works correctly by listing options like start, stop, etc.
2. "sudo /etc/init.d/XXX <TAB>" lists local files

Message:
Works fine for me.  Do you have a separate completion for sshd installed - what does "complete -p sshd" output for you?
