I see this fragment in minibuf.c: /* If this minibuffer is reading a file name, that doesn't mean recursive ones are. But we cannot set it to nil, because completion code still need to know the minibuffer is completing a file name. So use `lambda' as intermediate value meaning "t" in this minibuffer, but "nil" in next minibuffer. */ if (!NILP (Vminibuffer_completing_file_name)) Vminibuffer_completing_file_name = Qlambda; So it sounds like `lambda' is used in recursive minibuffers. Am I missing something?
