Weird. Works fine (that is Length[f[1]] returns 1 as expected) on my 
system (Mac Os X 10.0.2 Leopard - Mathematica 6.0.2). What system were 
you using?


In[1]:= Length[f[1] + f[2] + f[3]]

Out[1]= 3

In[2]:= Length[f[1] + f[2]]

Out[2]= 2

In[3]:= Length[f[1]]

Out[3]= 1

In[4]:= $Version

Out[4]= "6.0 for Mac OS X x86 (64-bit) (February 7, 2008)"
