Subject: 24.3; icomplete-mode does not always show the complete candidate
 names when switching buffers

[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

When using icomplete-mode, switch-to-buffer does not always show the
complete buffer
candidate names in the minibuffer when entering a search pattern.

Test case:

emacs -q
C-x C-f foo.el RET
C-x C-f foo.tmp RET
C-x b *scratch* RET
M-x icomplete-mode RET
C-x b oo

Now observe that you can see that there are two buffers matching the
pattern, but you do not see the names.

Now try this instead:

C-x b s

Now both the *scratch* and *Messages* buffer names are displayed as matches.

Thanks!

Thanks.  This was fixed a few days ago.
I'll add the bug# to the ChangeLog.
