Is pcomplete-arg broken? If the INDEX is negative, it always return nil
(I examine this in a edebug process during which (pcomplete-arg 1)
returns correct value). The body of the function does not seem to
contain any code handling negative INDEX though the doc string however
describes exact behaviour of negative INDEX.
Thanks.

Do you have an example of an actual problem? It basically does
(nth (- pcomplete-index index) pcomplete-args)
which looks fine to me. positive/negative indices are intepreted as
offsets to pcomplete-index, which is what the doc says.

I have re-read the code and the doc-string and come to the same
conclusion as yours. I guess this bug can be closed.
