The confusing thing is that if I add a normal call to foo and 
then change @dynamicCompileEmit to @dynamicCompile, then it still 
works without problem

The delegate version adds extra indirection relative to the bind 
version, correct? Does the bind version also have an extra 
indirection relative to the normal function call?

I suppose what I'm trying to find out is if

auto f = bind(&foo, 30, 10, placeholder);

should have the same run-time performance as

int f(int c)
{
     return 40 + c;
}

Thanks, now that I got it working, I confirmed that if you take 
an alias of the result of bind with the same name as the original 
function, then it will be called before the normal function.
