That's a very clever and plausible hypothesis, I wasn't really aware of
this behavior. Let's see if Paolo confirms this.
Apart from that, after opening the session file, one could perhaps do
"clear --functions".
Alternatively, we could warn the user with a GUI element containing a
message like "WARNING: the session file you're opening contains one or
more used-defined functions. Restoring them may not be what you want. Do
you want to restore the user-defined functions?" and a Yes/No button.
It may be a little annoying, though.
