Comment(by ezyang):
While doing this automatically seems quite hard, would some generalized
form of ``revertCAFs`` help folks out? The generalization would be on two
axes: one is that it would apply to any closure on the heap, not just
CAFs; and two is that you would be able to trigger the reversion from user
code (some other thunk to force, which you can either throw away or poke
with a ``seq``).
