This is solved by my patch.

I thought there was some difference in behavior even after that, but
it looks like I cannot reproduce it now, so I will consider that my
dream.

I see a different message:

  completion--some: No dynamic expansion for "x" found in this-buffer

Which IMO is completely reasonable.
