That makes sense, thanks.  I was hoping there was a way to redefine "f"
and use a class loader to get the redefinition into my JVM.

I know I can't do this now, but consider: I have a module-static module
M and functions F and G defined in that module.  When compiling that
module, Kawa will create a class M with (among other things) static
methods F and G.  If I use F then the class M will be loaded into my
JVM.

Now, what I would like to do is redefine F, recompile M, and then
somehow have Kawa load the new class definition of M into my JVM.

Anyway, thanks for the (set! F (lambda () ...)) work around.
