1. Open an empty emacs-lisp-mode buffer.

2. Type `;; Thi' in it (`Thi' is an example of a prefix without known
completions).

3. Press `C-M-i', see "End of file during parsing" in the echo area.

This is a problem for Company, because it makes the company-capf
`candidates' action raise the error. Original report here:
https://github.com/company-mode/company-mode/issues/66

The error doesn't happen when the symbol before point does have some
completions. Not sure why, because `(lisp--local-variables)' raises the
error either way when evaluated directly.

Same problem with helm.

Probably because you tried in a different context:

;; read-  => raise error

;; (read- => complete ok

Nope. I press C-M-i with this example and don't see the error.

Indeed, it should catch this error.  Can someone take care of that?
