Uh, yes.  It is C-u M-. that repeats M-.  Sorry for the false alarm.
Would there be drawbacks if M-, also did it?  Is an interleaving of
M-. and M-, (in its current meaning) likely, so that it would make
sense to keep the current separation?  I think it is not the first
time that I confused this, and the similarity of the keybindings does
suggest some connection.

I am copying this to emacs-devel in case someone wants to comment on it.
