You will see a non-empty empty environment if
the fun has a non-empty environment.

In your case, you will see it if you use the 'no_copt'
option to disable constant propagation (among other
optimizations) or if you rewrite f/0 like this:

f() ->
    f(1, 2).

f(X, Y) ->
    fun() ->
	    X-Y
    end.
