Sorry, but the branch bug-42149-funny-pcm-completion-scores doesn’t fix
any of that problem.

  (completion-flex-all-completions "R" '("R" "something-else-with-an-R")
                                   nil 1)

Will make both "R" and "something-else-with-an-R" get a completion-score
of 0, which is definitely not helping anything.

Best regards,
Dario
