Completion after C-h v

Hi all,

sorry if I missed something, but is the behavior for completions offered
after 'C-h v' changed now?  To reproduce, do:

• emacs -Q
• eval (setq completions-format 'vertical)
• Hit C-h v followed by TAB couple of times

This is what I see:

Now select for instance 'bovinate' and Emacs says:

  bovinate is void as a variable.

  Not documented as a variable.

Same goes for 'bob', 'bol', 'bos' etc.  This is with Emacs from master
(59e0b82776).

Best, Arash

Isn't this bug#72787?
