Thanks for the pointers to semantic-symref-perform-search.
It prepends "-n " to my customized pattern "rg -nH",
so the arg "-n" is duplicated on the command line:

  `rg -n -nH`

and signals the error:

  error: The argument '--line-number' was provided more than once, but cannot 
be used multiple times

This error is caused by the bug in the command line parser used by ripgrep:

  https://github.com/clap-rs/clap/issues/2171

that was fixed only 6 months ago, so it will take much time
before this fix will reach ripgrep, and this bug will be closed:

  https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/issues/1701

But even without duplicated "-n" semantic-symref-perform-search
doesn't work with ripgrep because it doesn't find such pattern:

  
\\\\\\(\\^\\\\\\|\\\\W\\\\\\)isearch-lazy-highlight\\\\\\(\\\\W\\\\\\|\\$\\\\\\)

Maybe semantic-symref-perform-search could be improved to support ripgrep?
Because without these two problems it works fine with ripgrep.

I confirm it's fixed, thanks.  I suppose xref-find-apropos doesn't offer
the identifier at point as its default because 'apropos' doesn't offer
the default?  But this is not a big problem.
