The patch looks OK to me.

The way standard completion handles this now, with my recent checkin,
is to check minibuffer-completing-symbol and not bind completion-base
size if it is non-nil (eval-expression binds
minibuffer-completing-symbol to indicate that it is currently reading
a symbol):

  (setq completion-base-size
    (cond
      ..             
     (minibuffer-completing-symbol nil)
