   Sorry to all of you who might have been confused by my
   message.  I was not thinking explicitly of Scheme's
   Letrec.  I was thinking of a general recursive let
   construct, particularly for non-function objects, though
   I see no reason why such a construct could not be used
   for function objects too.
