I am not quite sure what you mean? There was no 'g' at all in my code snippet except for that in 'object->string'. Unless you are mistaking the '9' for one?

Is what happens when I write so late at night. I mistook the 9 for a g, thinking it was showing the body of the lambda. Really, I was just reading it all sorts of wrong.

I still feel this is somehow different, but I can't express the difference well.

Note that I should say I am not at all surprised that scheme could do this, for what its worth. I'm just saying that this feels different.
