To reproduce: in emacs invoked with '-Q', in the Scratch buffer, insert the following
code:
(require 'cl-macs)
(cl-flet ((fn ((min max))
(message "%d %d" min max)))
(fn '(2 3)))
The cl-flet form evaluates fine (e.g. with C-x C-e or C-M-x), which
leads me to conclude that this construct is legal. However, attempting
to instrument the form with Edebug (C-u C-M-x) results in an enormous
backtrace starting with
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-read-syntax "Expected" "lambda")
If I get rid of the argument destructuring, Edebug works as
expected. For example, I'm able to step through the following code with
Edebug just fine:
(cl-flet ((fn (min max)
(message "%d %d" min max)))
(fn 2 3))
=> "2 3"
I should be able to, for example, instrument the destructuring (buggy) cl-flet form,
run through it with 'g', and see the same output.
