The procedure is called "minimum-arity", after all -- it does not claim to be the most exact arity. So, this is not a bug. Strictly speaking it is an enhancement request, to improve the debuggability of interpreted procedures. I am changing the title to reflect that. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
