Interesting. This brings goto to mind. Above, I could just assume that
inlining will happen, but what about goto? Obviously:
sub load_data($filename) { goto &load_data }
would be ambiguous, and would throw away the (now lexical) $filename.
I can't see any way to usefully preserve the old new meaning of goto. Is
this a good thing?
