Hi Ludovic,

I pushed a couple patches that should help this bug out, though for some
reason I wasn't able to reproduce the issue before.  I wonder why.

Indeed.  I think I fixed that now.

Strange.  Another thing was that the function was a constant, not a
closure, so it wasn't going to be collectable in the first place.

Can you retry the test now, Dale?

Thanks,

Andy
