I believe that the correct fix is for *you* to change *your* skeletons
to be:

(nil "fun f (" @ ")" \n "{" \n _ "}"
 (setq skeleton-point (pop skeleton-positions))

It makes more sense for you since you are using @ incorrectly.

Simply because you have taken advantage of a programming error in the
past does not mean you can continue to do so in the future.
