Hey, that is the black box game again ... ;-)

Yes, you are right, but I do not understand how it works. I guess C-h f 
searches the buffer for the "definition-name".

So this looks like more or less a bug.

I tried to look at defstruct to see where to add 'definition-name. There 
seems to be 4 uses of `defun' and `defsubst*'. Should not all this 4 be 
adding 'definition-name?
