[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]
Hi,
1. emacs -Q
2. Insert "(cond (current-p
3. Hit M-TAB to complete
We're completing a symbol in the condition of a cond clause, so it is
expected to be completed as a variable, to current-prefix-argument.
However, Emacs mistakenly thinks that we're completing a function name,
and completes to current-bidi-paragraph-direction.
Thanks,
Eshel
