Got some time to make an even simpler test, see below:



(defconst assoc-list nil)
(setq assoc-list
      '((description . "CEDET")
        (install-function . "cedet-setup")))

(defvar callmsg nil)
(defun check-detail(consdet)
  (when callmsg (message "    *****")) ;; <---- works only if message is 
called
  (let ((detname (car consdet)))
    (message (concat "    ... checking detail \"" (symbol-name detname) 
"\""))))
 
(message "\n-----------------------Single, NO marked message call:")
(setq callmsg nil)
(mapc 'check-detail assoc-list)
(message "\n-----------------------Single, WITH marked message call:")
(setq callmsg t)
(mapc 'check-detail assoc-list)
