I was unable to reproduce the problem: user=> (defn foo->fn [] (throw (Exception. "bad thing"))) #'user/foo->fn user=> (defn other-fn [] (foo->fn)) #'user/other-fn user=> (other-fn) Exception bad thing user/foo->fn (NO_SOURCE_FILE:1) Perhaps you can post a minimal example that demonstrates the problem.
