Okay, so that's what there was in CVS Emacs as well before the change.

When typing `M-g' the command obviously is not complete.  So what do
you expect `C-h k' to tell you in this case?  If you want to see a
list of full commands for such a prefix you can always use `C-h' after
typing the prefix.  That means `M-g C-h' will list all the bindings
for the `M-g' prefix.

I am not intending to do this.  And even if this was removed, there
would still be `C-x `' which is very close to `C-c `'..
