That "function plus precompilation step" would do the equivalent of
`eval` ;-)

Indeed, with it you can define a function like `peg-and` such that
(peg-and (peg PEX1) (peg PEX2)) === (peg (and PEX1 PEX2))
but using such functions to build a PEG would result in substantially
slower code (because it gets split into many small functions, thus
increasing the function call overheads).
