bug#73092: 31.0.50; Completion lists unbound variables with suffix - (e.g., rcirc-)
It just occurred to me that variable completion with C-h v lists non-existent variables with suffix -, e.g., rcirc-, Man-, Info-, info-, etc. When selecting one of those, the *Help* buffer just says --8<---cut here---start->8--- rcirc- is void as a variable. Not documented as a variable. --8<---cut here---end--->8--- Yeah, that's correct, but why was it shown in the *Completions* then? That happens with "emacs -Q" with emacs from git master.

Alright, thanks. My debbugs searching foo needs improvement. ;-) Am Sa, 7.
