From an 'emacs -q' session, I find that after using M-x
project-find-file (or C-x p f) and selecting some candidate foo, trying
to use M-p within a subsequent invocation of project-find-file will not
recover foo.

However, using M-p from within find-file (instead of project-find-file)
will indeed recover foo.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the report, it's a recent thing.

This is now fixed on master, commit 338409c1f19.

Also Cc-ing Spencer: note that project--transplant-file-name now returns 
non-abbreviated name (different project-read-file-name-function's can 
abbreviate or not, but expand-file-name seems to work just as well).
