I'm not perfectly sure this applies to MacRuby, but I suspect it should since
our Array is implemented on top of NSMutableArray:
http://ridiculousfish.com/blog/archives/2005/12/23/array/
But the gist is CFArrays more or less switch to using hashes internally at some

You can pass a selector as a symbol or string:
m.setEventHandler(self, andSelector:
:"getURL:event:withReplyEvent:re
So It seems to me the only change there is uninlining the lambda and assigning
it to a throwaway variable. That feels like busywork.
I suspect this has to do with keeping a reference so it doesn't get GC'd. Just
a hunch. Am I getting there?
Why is this needed?
