Details:

When saving and loading variables containing anonymous functions, the string
representation in the output file may not match their semantics.

What apparently happens in the attached example is that upon converting the
function f back to a string when saving, the brackets surrounding the colon
expression get trashed, and when again converting the new - and wrong - string
representation to a function, the + operator takes precedence over the :, as
it should, and we get funny results.
