Maybe `do` can just change from procs to closures. I can't really say
how often I've actually wanted a proc. Task bodies are a far minority

`spawn(proc() { ... })` that unappealing.
I really don't see "do" for stack closures as something that makes sense
in current Rust. It made sense back when we used it for loops and didn't
use RAII (as Ruby does), but the experiment of using blocks in place of
RAII for stuff like "with_c_str" or "unkillable" has failed: it leads to
too much rightward drift.
