Warning: attempt to open-code `anonymous lambda' with too few arguments

Warning: attempt to open-code `anonymous lambda' with too few arguments

[Lennart Borgman (gmail)]

I get the warning above when I byte compiling a file. The error points 
to a line that contains

       (when (< new-real-end old-end)

Do I have to say I do not understand anything? ;-)

Is this a bug or? I get this with Emacs CVS 23 from 2008-04-27.

I'd guess the line-number is off.

That sounds very likely. There are several of those warnings. All of 
them located at 1361:16.

The message comes from byte-compile-unfold-lambda and the name parameter 
to this function is "anonymous lambda". It was an error in the number of 
parameters (in unused code).

The byte compiler line number tracking sometimes is unreliable.
If this is a test failure case, it would be nice to debug it
and fix it.
