The warning you highlight is a red herring as it's referring to the 
outer-most closure.

Consider the following change:

def Test(an_arg, clock, reset):

     @always_seq(clock.posedge, reset=reset)
     def test_case():
         if an_arg:
             bleh()

     return test_case

This converts with no warnings but the same symptoms.

You're quite right this should be picked up by testing, but I don't 
think it should pass quite so quietly as it does.

Cheers,

Henry
