icomplete-mode interferes with transient-mark-mode

[Jesper Harder <harder@ifa.au.dk>]

Hi!

There's some interference between icomplete and transient-mark-mode if
you invoke marking commands as extended commands.

To reproduce start a clean emacs with

      emacs -q --no-site-file 

turn on transient-mark-mode

     (transient-mark-mode 1)

and icomplete-mode

     (icomplete-mode 1)

Now mark a word with `M-x mark-word' -- it fails, the word isn't
marked.  

The same problem occurs with all the other marking commands I tried when
they're invoked as extended commands rather than with their keybinding.
