Oh, OK.  I wouldn't expect the rewriter to realize that that sort of
situation is recursive.  Depending on what your function is doing, it
might or might not be an infinite recursion, so I don't think I'd want
the system arbitrarily preventing you from doing this sort of thing.

Perhaps there should be an upper bound on function-call recursion depth
enforced someplace?  Not sure.
