Suppose you have the following snippet opened with erlang-mode and font-lock-mode:somefunc(X) -> case X of nil -> fun() -> xx() end end. and then you do "M-x set-face-background", selecting "font-lock-function-name-face" as the face and, for example, "SteelBlue" as the color. Then you will see that the space character immediately after any "->" token is now colorized.
Yes, it's a bug in emacs.el. The arrow itself should be colorized instead of trailing space. The following patch fixes the bug.
