Emacs 23.3 invoked as described in my first post ("emacs -q test.el
--eval '(eval-buffer)'" with this

;;-----------------------------------------------------------
(ido-mode 1)
(ido-everywhere 1)
(defun my-test (file)
  (interactive "fFile to load: ")
  (message "my-test file: %s" file))
(call-interactively 'my-test)
;;-----------------------------------------------------------

in the file test.el and invoked from the directory where the file is
located) shows test.el highlighted as the first ido-suggestion in the
modeline prompt "File to load:". That is the file of the current
buffer test.el, as expected.

But Emacs 24.1, 24.2 and 24.3 show the alphabetically first file in
the directory, highlighted as the first ido-suggestion in the prompt.

Michael
