Subject: bug#14238: [PATCH] Help page for character description forgets the character
Date: Sun, 21 Apr 2013 04:38:21 -0700 (PDT)

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
On 24.3, emacs -Q
Type the letters AB, then put point on A. Do describe-char, then put point on B, and do describe-char again.
Change the A to C, the press [back] in *Help*.
The help page is now for C, not for A. It should be for A; you never did describe-char on C.
The attached descharbug.patch fixes it.
