The recipe to reproduce the problematic behavior was in Drew's mail:
emacs -q
(setq pop-up-frames t)
M-x list-faces-display
Click mouse-2 on completions-first-difference. It shows Inherit: bold.
M-: (set-face-attribute 'completions-first-difference nil :inherit
'unspecified) RET
C-x 5 f whatever (create a new frame)
M-x list-faces-display (from the new frame)
Click mouse-2 on completions-first-difference. It shows "Inherit: bold"
(the original value).
However, doing list-faces-display from the same buffer where
you did `set-face-attribute', and clicking
completions-first-difference, shows "Inherit: unspecified".
My comment about a possible bug specific to :inherit was because
evaluating the same expression, namely
(set-face-attribute 'completions-first-difference nil ATTR 'unspecified)
when ATTR is different from :inherit, e.g. :background or :slant, does
work as Drew expected, and as the doc strings say it should.
