Bug description

As indicated in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29788717/ocaml-when-guard-in-fun , the refman's BNF (http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/expr.html) says fun can take a guard:

| fun multiple-matching

multiple-matching ::= { parameter }+ [when expr] -> expr

but it does not.

The section "Guards in pattern-matchings" also states fun can take a guard.
