I shouldn't have been so definitive about that "fix".
It apparently didn't work - the user now reports a
different error message, saying "Something like two
arguments but expected one." I don't use BBDB, so
I'm flying a bit blind on this.
Hope my bug report makes some sense in any case.
My question seems reasonable, at least in my relative
ignorance: why must the PREDICATE take also a VALUE
arg when COLLECTION is a hash table? Why isn't KEY
lookup sufficient?
