The colon _has_ punctuation syntax in custom buffers. It's the syntax
table chosen by `variable-at-point' which messes up things in your case.

Commands that do not change the syntax table do get this right. Try,
for example, info-lookup on such an item. It should even work for
unlispified items.

Changing customization code is 100% dangerous.
