I suppose this is a follow up on [Logiweb] lemma proof mismatch.
If the pyk compiler sees that the same aspect of the same construct is
defined more than once, it compares the right hand sides of the
definitions and, if they differ, print a warning.
In particular, if a lemma is stated twice, the compiler prints a warning
unless the two instances are completely identical.
But the warning hides in the horrible amounts of output from the compiler.
Some day I think I choke the output from TeX. That should reduce the
amount of output to a level where it makes sense to spot warnings (but one
will risk to miss TeX warnings, of course).
Klaus
