Sorry, I've missed something here - how is your 'framework' superior

it demonstrates tail-recursion, as such, and is not intended to be
a superior approach to other practices.

I just realized that goto sub is a better framework for implementing
such things, anyway:

# perl -wle 'sub f{ f()}; f()'
Deep recursion on subroutine "main::f" at -e line 1.
Out of memory!
# perl -wle 'sub f{ goto &f}; f()'
^C

Oh and I can't believe you've only skimmed HOP - it's a superb book
that should be mandatory reading if this is an area you're interested
in.

so was the textbook in Lisp class.
