Hello,

I have been able to reproduce this bug under emacs 25.1 and git master
(at c542fab). Here are the steps to reproduce.
For simplicity, I am using two very minimal tags files (fruits/TAGS and
vegetables/TAGS) available from
https://github.com/jschwab/emacs-tags-issues
but any tags files ought to do.
Open emacs with emacs -Q
Do
,----
| C-x C-f file1
| M-: (visit-tags-table "fruits/TAGS")
| M-. [TAB]
`----
The possible completions offered will be fruits, as expected.
Continue by doing
,----
| C-x C-f file2
| M-: (visit-tags-table "vegetables/TAGS" t)
`----
The user is prompted, "Keep current list of tags tables also? (y or
n)". Reply n.
Now do
,----
| M-. [TAB]
`----
The possible completions offered will be fruits and not vegetables as
expected.
After this, the *Messages* buffer looks like
,----
| (New file)
| Starting a new list of tags tables
| "/home/jschwab/Software/emacs-tags-issues/fruits/TAGS"
| Making tags completion table for /home/jschwab/Software/emacs-tags-issues/fruits/TAGS...done
| Making completion list...
| Quit
| (New file)
| Keep current list of tags tables also? (y or n) n
