* I started emacs with emacs -Q -nw
* I turned on icomplete by typing ESC x i c o m p l e t e RET
* I attempted to insert my favorite character, "PILE OF POO", by typing C-x 8 RET p i l e RET 
* I saw an error in the echo area: read-char-by-name: Invalid character
* I did not see my beloved character in the current buffer

Okay, so then this bug report should be closed, since things are "working as designed". Does anyone have any objections to closing?

Yes, IMO it should be closed.  But I don't decide these things.

A week has passed and there's been no objection, so i'm tagging this as 'notabug' and closing.


Alexis.
