I think there are two bugs: 1- the `flymake' group is missing: plase install your suggested patch, Martin. 2- customize-group should signals the error in a cleaner way (especially since it happily completed the word "flymake").

Done. > 2- customize-group should signals the error in a cleaner way > (especially since it happily completed the word "flymake"). It "completes" because apparently `custom-make-dependencies', when reading defcustoms from flymake.el, concludes that `flymake' is a valid customization group and adds a (put 'flymake 'custom-loads '(flymake)) to cus-load.el. I now don't raise an error any more.

Or maybe it can even be made to work (after all the `defgroup' usually only provides non-vital info such as parent groups and a docstring).
