This obviously happens with helm-mode. I wouldn't call this a bug in
helm though, since `read-buffer' returns a string, so the default
value(s) should be specified as strings as well:
(read-buffer "Buffer A to compare: " (cons (buffer-name) nil))
BTW, one could limit the candidates to choose from to buffers that are
currently displayed, if you would prefer that. You could also get the
selection done by clicking windows with the mouse like
`ediff-windows-linewise' does in trunk.
