Hello!

When I want to load from the *scratch* buffer the file "Kanäle" I  
type: C-x C-f K a n <TAB> and I see that file name completion simply  
works.

When I have chosen "Send Bug Report..." from the Help menu and try to  
load the same file with the same procedure from the *Bug Help*  
buffer, or when starting the action from initial *Messages* buffer,  
in echo-area the string

	Loading .../emacs/lisp/international/uni-combining.el (source)...done

appears and stays there, until I do something, change to another  
buffer, or such. Then in mini-buffer the prompt

	Find file: ~/Kanäle

becomes visible, awaiting confirmation. The same happens when I split  
the initial window into two windows and load *Messages* into one of  
the windows. Then, when loading the "Kanäle" file as described from  
the scratch buffer, again the message in the echo-area appears and no  
prompt to confirm loading of ~/Kanäle appears. In the *Messages*  
buffer of the initial case (my first sentence) no loading of ELisp  
files is reported.
