Kind of related question:

mark-defun does not put point where beginning-of-defun puts it. But
if there is an empty line preceding the beginning-of-defun location,
mark-defun will put point there. Why? The docstring of mark-defun
does not explain this behavior. Also, the optional arg of mark-defun
should be explained, too.

Thanks,

Roland
