I was asking for a piece of code were the compiler would unnecessarily 
heap-allocate a local (and not a situation where doing so would botch up 
a program).
But in reading Frank Benoit's post in the full closure thread below, 
I've already seen one meanwhile. I didn't know the compiler 
heap-allocated a local in every situation where a local is used as an 
outer variable. That indeed puts a serious burden on the use of scoped 
closures :(
