Redirecting functions calls ?

[Vance Shipley]

Can someone tell me what this is supposed to do?
(Apart from what was requested :)

I really fail to see what is being attempted here.
'fred' is a guard expression.  I see that a valid
guard expression is "constants (terms and bound
variables) all regarded as false".  So wouldn't
the the following be equivalent (and more clear)?

	test(A) when false ->

As I read it you have a function with one clause
which will never match and so never be called.
