IIRC it was determined then that 'eval' focus was to allow testing of trappable events - without allowing the code (however crazy) to die.
The side effects are such that there are tests which lead one to believe X is a bug when in fact it is a mis-represented feature and should be documented as such.
Simply saying "if this were in the real code" has little meaning since we are, after all, testing with eval.
Not to be hard-headed but I just dont see this as an issue; I would . rather have established manageable chaos.
Is was in fact a bug. Please see my previous post for the official details. You were right all along though in saying they were warnings. The bug was that there was no way to silence them. It's fixed for upcoming releases.
