I believe I've fixed this in trunk.

1. Open scratch buffer in emacs-lisp-mode.

2. Type `(+ d', press C-M-i.

3. See all kinds of symbols among the suggestions, starting `d',
`d1ei' and `d2ei'. None of these three are bound variables.

But I suppose they are present in obarray. Unless we're certain that the
symbol we're completing won't be evaluated directly, though (i.e. the
head of the current list is a macro), I don't think unbound symbols
should be among the suggestions. Otherwise, this completion looks too
much like dabbrev, and if I wanted that, I could just press M-/.
