    Then there are a bunch of operators using e.g. square brackets which
    are troublesome for eldoc. E.g

      (setq-default [VAR VALUE...])

      (vs  (setq SYM VAL SYM VAL ...))

I fixed both of those (in Emacs 22) to be more rational:
[VAR VALUE]...

I hope those changes will migrate into the trunk.
