Moritz meant you get strange error messages when using lexical-let in a
lexical-binding enabled file.  This is a test case:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; -*- lexical-binding: t -*-

(defun foo (arg)
  arg)

(lexical-let ((x 1))
  (foo x))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

When you eval the last form, you get a message [bad-lexical-ref].  Well,
that's actually not a bad thing, because if the file uses
lexical-binding there's no reason for using lexical-let.  The message is
just not very clear.
