Message-ID: <340C21BB.C9C3CCE@rrz.uni-hamburg.de> (raw)

If a file contains more than one autoload function, strange things
happen (3.1.2 and older versions):

  # File 'f1'
  function f1() { print $0 $*; }
  function f2() { print $0 $*; }

At the prompt, type

  autoload f1 f2
  fpath=(.)
  f1         # NOTHING HAPPENS!
  functions  # shows that f1 und f2 are defined
  f1         # now f1 is called!

Only if the definition of f2 is deleted from the file, the first call of
f1 works. 
This must be a bug; it inhibts building a function library in a single
file (while linking it to other names if necessary).

Regards,
	Bernd
