Hello.
Starting from emacs -Q, in the *scratch* buffer type:
(let ((function 'foo))
function)
Note that function gets the font-lock-keyword-face. I think it shouldn't,
because it is being used as a variable.
Similarly, if you type:
(defun foo (function)
nil)
the same happens.
It probably happens with others special forms, but function is quite
noticeable, because it is not uncommon to use it as an argument or as a
variable inside a let _expression_.
Best regards,
Mauro.
