The bug is not limited to an unknown procedure, it seems like any "named slot template" instruction will cause it. For example, this also reproduces the leak:

SHOW NODES
REPEAT 1000 [ APPLY (LIST [] (LIST "IGNORE 1) ) [] ]
SHOW NODES

At first glance of the leaked nodes, it looks the node representing the anonymous function is leaked because the "treeification" creates a circular reference that is only broken if the node is explicitly untreeified.

In looking at CHANGELOG.TXT for version 6.11.0, I don't see anything that could have introduced this.
