[erlang-questions] parameterized module returns badfun

[Filippo Pacini]

Hi,
I had a similar problem with parametrized modules in erlhive.

Ulf pointed me here:
http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2007-July/027672.html

There's a patch to apply to shell.erl without it parameterized modules
don't work on 5.5.5.

cheers,
filippo
