When I hit Control-] on "empty?" in Ruby code, Vim says "E426: tag not

hitting ":ta empty?", it's just Control-] that fails.
Can I fix this? Is there a way to make Vim search for "empty?"
instead of "empty\?"? FWIW, hitting Control-] on "empty!" works
great.
I have this in my vimrc so that Ruby's oddball identifiers can be
recognized.
autocmd FileType ruby setlocal iskeyword+=!,?

P.S. Let's not argue about whether ? in identifiers is a good idea or
not... Personally I dislike it but it's not my choice.
To search for "empty?", try
:tag empty?
which is the equivalent of the :help g?? command that I used (see
below), and AFAICT it works.
There are a lot of tags containing question marks in the Vim help: to
see them all, do
:help ?<C-D>
where <C-D> means "hit Ctrl-D".
For instance,
:help g??
brings me to the proper help paragraph, but then using Ctrl-] on the g??
in the left margin gives
E149: Sorry, no help for g\?\?
IOW, I confirm the bug, also for help tags, at patchlevel 7.2.394 (but I
think I've already seen that bug mentioned on-list -- maybe on vim_dev
though).
Best regards,
Tony.
