partial-completion-mode and M-TAB

[David Hansen]

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the address@hidden mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Hello,

maybe not a bug but a *very* irritating "feature"

$ emacs -Q

M-x partial-completion-mode

open some c file:

M-TAB runs the command PC-lisp-complete-symbol

open some emacs lisp file:

M-TAB runs the command lisp-complete-symbol
