Yes, I see. Actually if I understand it correctly it will only be used
in file compilation; yet it could cause problems with "strange" forms
like (setq foo (defun ...)) where foo will be set to the function
object instead of the function name, only when loading the FASL, not
when loading the source. I'll experiment a bit with this and if I'm
right, I'll commit another fix.

Thanks for the tip!
