CLIM 1.1 Genera 8.1

I noticed something odd and was wondering whether anyone has a fix.  I define two
presentation types and give each an accept method (using completing-from-suggestions),
and then do an accept on '(or one-type the-other).  If I type sufficient to uniquely
identify an object from the first type (one-type) and hit <tab>, it completes.  If I try
for an object from the second type (the-other), the first time I hit <tab> nothing
happens; if I immediately hit it again, then it completes.  After hitting it twice, it
keeps working for either type (within the same accept call).

(I can send a simple example code to anyone who wants it.)
