Thanks.  Compiling this produces the following warnings:

    ELC      icomplete.elc

  In icomplete--render-vertical:
  icomplete.el:1015:11: Warning: Unused lexical variable `comp'
  icomplete.el:1019:10: Warning: Unused lexical variable `comp'

Can you fix this, please?

Also, a couple of minor nits:

These entries should be under "Changes in Specialized Modes and
Packages in Emacs 31.1", in a new sub-section "Icomplete".

We use the US English spelling: "behavior".
