I'm trying to get the meta data off a function that was stored in a map,

(defn my-fun [x] x)

(def fun-map {:function my-fun})


(meta (var my-fun)) ; this works
(meta (var (:function fun-map))) ; This fails with CompilerException 
java.lang.ClassCastException: clojure.lang.PersistentList cannot be cast to 
clojure.lang.Symbol, compiling:


It's not clear to me what is going on here as both my-fun and (:function 
fun-map) resolve to the same value.

Is this expected behavior?
