Upon further thought, you can probably make recursive covenants even with a
fixed scritpubkey by sneaking the state into a few bits of the UTXO's
amount.  Or if you try really hard, you may be able to stash your state
into a sibling output that is accessed via the txid embedded in the
prevoutpoint.
