Strongly disagree. If we cannot inline stuff like map, we cannot create

Hello,
I wanted to do a quick straw poll to ask whether we still need a lambda
expression, given that we have blocks and named functions? Searching
the rust code base, I found that *every* use of lambda was of the form:

For most people this should require little action. The first time you
run make it will reconfigure, then the build will likely fail. Run make
again and it should work. If things still don't work, then wipe the
build directory and start from scratch and let me know what happened.
