All of the Senator completion functions were never merged to Emacs,
hence the bug is that `semantic-ia-complete-symbol-menu' was
accidentally merged by me. I will remove that again from Emacs. The new
completion framework is the semantic/complete package, with
semantic-complete-analyze-inline(-idle) as the main frontend functions.

If you find those mechanisms to be lacking, an alternative is to use the
external auto-complete or company package (the latter is available
through ELPA).

Removed emacs devel from the cc,

So I tried to use ac-source-semantic. Is there anything specific I need
to do to get this to work ? I just have this in my c-mode-common-hook
  (setq ac-sources '(ac-source-semantic))

Any other changes needed to get it working ?

Please read the manual.

You might also be interested in this fork (awaiting merge into upstream):

    https://github.com/llvilanova/auto-complete

Relevant code is in the "semantic-completion-placeholders" branch.

If you have "yas/minor-mode" enabled in your buffer, completing a function will
insert placeholders for the arguments.

That made it really nice. I had to use a larger ac-delay value,
otherwise filling the args value and giving \t tried to auto complete
the args in a wrong way. Hopefully this will be part of 1.4 ? I also
have to use ac-semantic-raw in ac-sources

I'm not sure. All I know is the auto-complete people are planning to split the
whole project into multiple per source sub-projects, and that's when they're
planning to merge the placeholders code.

I didn't play much with the implementation of candidate selection, except for
making the symbol documentation available.

AFAIR, ac-semantic-raw will provide you symbols for the cases where you're not
completing "members" (see `ac-prefix-cc-member').
