I think this fits in with what I realised, which is that line numbers
for functions are wrong if they're in a nested scope.  The anonymous
functions that brought this up are naturally defined that way because
they're executed in other functions and hence defined there, whereas
typically functions are deifned in a top level scope --- except for
ksh-style, where they're defined as functions inside the autoload scope
and then executed.

What I haven't worked out is how to fix this.  I'm confused about how
the definition and execution hierarchies fit together.

If I don't get further I may commit the current change as a general
improvement on previous behaviour.
