Both.  It was a real bug which did not show up in xemacs,
since the hash tables used for GNU/Xemacs return different
results.

The first lookup results in an partial match.  For GNU Emacs
one gets an email address, but for Xemacs only the complete name.
This partial match is then again fed into bbdb-complete-name
and here was the bug in the cycling code, which should
not be executed for partial matches.

For Xemacs it did not do anything bad, since there was no
email address, but for GNU Emacs it started cycling ...
