Package: emacs21
Version: 21.4a+1-1
Severity: normal

When the variable `insert-default-directory' is customized to nil,
completion breaks in the find-file and find-alternate-file commands.
More precisely, it still works when there is a single suitable
completion which is auto-inserted in the minibuffer; but when there
are multiple choices, the completion buffer with the choices is
displayed, but any attempt to actually select one choice, either
with the mouse or by hitting Enter, leads to an error message
"Text is read only".  This seems to happen in the function
`choose-completion-string' at the point where it calls `delete-region'.
