The point was the order in which things happen -- modifying f
changes the definition of g.

Here's a simpler example:
   F
|value error: F
   G=: F"1

Here, G is defined as F"1, but F doesn't have a definition yet.

F might be a function of infinite rank (like scheme's primitives),
or it might have some different rank.  Or, as I show above, it
might have no definition (and thus no rank), at all.

Anyways, my concern is that I would not describe G as a clone
of F -- G has a reference to F, and I am not sure that that's the
same thing.
