It's correct. Clojure's compiler inlines certain functions, including clojure.core/unchecked-foo and, when the arity is 2, clojure.core/+ -- but not a bare, un-qualified +, which might (or might not) at runtime refer to clojure.core/+ or clojure.core/unchecked-add or whatever. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
