Yes.  So I was actually going to propose the attached patch.  In my
testing, it is as fast as the C version (especially when byte-compiled),
which would match my intuition from reading the code.

(benchmark-run 10
  (apropos-command "test"))
=> (0.12032415399999999 2 0.014772391999999995) ; C
=> (0.13513192100000002 2 0.017216643000000004) ; Lisp

(benchmark-run 10
  (apropos "x"))
=> (3.846117816 131 1.092690677) ; C
=> (4.218219444 145 1.2153865740000003) ; Lisp

Any comments or objections?
