Subject: bug#12456: 24.2.50; Completion in `Info-goto-node' (cross-manual jump)
Date: Sun, 16 Sep 2012 19:59:43 +0200
Recipe from emacs -Q: C-h r g ( e l i s p ) n n <TAB>

When I do it, I see in the echo area the message "[Complete, but not
unique]", which is wrong, as the elisp manual has no node called (nor
beggining with) "nn".

OTOH, if I repeat the experiment but this time with "(elisp)num",
Emacs says the same message (this time is right), but a second <TAB>
produces the message "[No completions]", which is wrong, as there is 3
nodes in the elisp manual whose names start with "num".
