// Various unsuccessful attempts to put the unboxed closure kind
// inference into an awkward position that might require fixed point
// iteration (basically where inferring the kind of a closure `c`
// would require knowing the kind of `c`). I currently believe this is
// impossible.

    // iteration, but it still doesn't work. The weird structure with
    // the `Option` is to avoid giving any useful hints about the `Fn`
    // kind via the expected type.
