Thanks, but it doesn't seem to work like I expected.

Here's what I did:

  . emacs -Q
  . Mark several words of the comment in *scratch*, one by one, and
    type M-w to copy each one of them to the kill-ring
  . M-y, then type the beginning of one of the saved words (not the
    last one), type TAB to complete, then type RET to insert
  . C-y

The last didn't C-y insert the word inserted before it by M-y, it
inserted the word in the previous slot of kill-ring.
