Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
M-x C-p C-p ... shows strange entries, even with -Q, e.g.
quail-show-keyboard-layout
makefile-makepp-mode
plain-tex-mode
shell-dynamic-complete-command
update-autoloads-from-directories
php-mode
...
If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/23.1/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

Do you mean you see unsorted commands while typing `M-x M-n M-n ...'?

Do you mean you see unsorted commands while typing `M-x M-n M-n ...'?
I meant that I never ran those commands, so they shouldn't show up in
the minibuffer history, yet they do.

They don't show up in the minibuffer history when you type
`M-x M-p M-p ...'.

M-x M-n M-n ... shows random entries that were never called by the
user; even when using -Q and first thing after start up when the
mini-buffer history is supposed to be empty. That is a bug, or
undocumented feature.
Sorry if I was unclear.

I agree that pushing completions to M-n of M-x is confusing.
I don't find this feature useful.

Then set minibuffer-default-add-function to nil.

I think `minibuffer-default-add-completions' as the value of
`minibuffer-default-add-function' is useful for a list of buffers
for buffer-reading commands because there are ordered by recency.
For most other commands, completions are unordered, so perhaps we should
set `minibuffer-default-add-function' to `minibuffer-default-add-completions'
only for buffer-reading commands.

Then set minibuffer-default-add-function to nil.
Can we set this as the default? The current behaviour is not
intuitive, or useful.

Yes, I agree. But I'm not sure if this should be done for the next release,
because currently there is feature freeze. Or this counts as a bug?
