Subject: bug#21389: bogus diagnostic about unused lexical variable in eshell/time
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2015 14:36:33 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <55E4C8E1.6080304@cs.ucla.edu> (raw)
To reproduce the problem in a fresh build from Emacs master, do this:
touch lisp/eshell/em-unix.el
make
The output will include the following lines:
eshell/em-unix.el:933:1:Warning: Unused lexical variable ‘args’
eshell/em-unix.el:963:1:Warning: Unused lexical argument ‘args’
The first diagnostic is bogus. The second one is correct. Perhaps the
byte compiler is getting confused by the second one and the confusion is
affecting the first one.
The first diagnostic is generated for code that starts off like this:
(defun eshell/time (&rest args)
"Implementation of \"time\" in Lisp."
(let ((time-args (copy-alist args))
...
so the lexical variable ‘args’ is being used.
