Subject: bug#66187: read-file-name unexpected behavior when MUSTMATCH is a function

I don't know, but I would expect that when the MUST-MATCH predicate
fails the behavior is the same as with MUST-MATCH t, and when it
succeeds, the behavior is like MUST-MATCH nil. Quite simple I think.
Do you see something different?
Hmm - or, maybe the confusion is about the behavior for the members of
the collection? With other words, whether the argument can be used to
restrict which existing files are matched, vs. whether it can only be
used to limit what additionally matches? AFAIU the latter is the case -
existing files always match.

I didn't understand the "this erroneously returns the default filename"
part. What default filename is returned?
Michael.
