[erlang-bugs] erl_eval funs

[Fred Hebert]

This is a 'problem' for all funs going in the shell and evaluator, and
they also hit escripts without a module name.

It's about a fun of that type being seen as a local one rather than an
auto-imported one, and so they get attached to erl_eval like other
evaluated funs. This works with any other auto-imported function in the
shell (say process_info/1-2).

I guess there needs to be an extension to the entire chain to fix this.

Regards,
Fred.
