Does the following example affect your conclusion?

   Eshell V5.5.2  (abort with ^G)
   1> c(funs).
   {ok,funs}
   2> F = funs:return_fun().
   #Fun<funs.0.65081764>
   3> F().
   version 1
   ok
   4> c(funs).               % I edited the source before recompiling
   {ok,funs}
   5> F().    
   version 2
   ok
   6> c(funs).
   {ok,funs}
   7> F().    
   version 3
   ok

-module(funs).
-export([return_fun/0]).

return_fun() ->
	fun f/0.

f() ->
	io:fwrite("version 1\n").
