ElDoc does no longer work for functions containing '-'

[Stefan Daschek]

Symptoms:

For example in *scratch* buffer, with eldoc-mode enabled, I type
(delete-overlay ) (point before closing brace) and minibuffer shows
description for the function "delete". Same for other functions
having dashes in their names.
