Not a problem. func_closure is already a restricted attribute. IMHO, the clean way to do this is to provide a built-in function to get the cell content in a more direct and reliable way, and then put that in a separate module with other interpreter hacks. That both makes it easier to do stuff like this, and easier to prevent it simply by forbidding import of that module. -- ?!ng
