It was only an idea thrown out for consideration.  I'm glad it spawned
some new ideas.

To curry a function, you could copy the first six elements from the
byte-code object and put them into a new byte-code object along with
the curried arguments.  I don't think that usage would be quite as bad
as you envisioned (no trampoline, no consing when calling, etc), but
anway, I'm not defending it as your suggestion seems much more elegant:

Sounds good to me.
