Even worse: In emacs -Q, `C-h v imenu-generic-expression' shows you the
variable's doc, but that just refers you to `imenu--generic-function' (see
original bug report).  And that function has not been loaded, so (a) its name is
not linked to any doc and (2) `C-h f' does not accept its name.  Result, `C-h v
imenu-generic-expression' gives you no info about the format of the variable
value.
