Comment (by nomeata):

 This wouldn’t be a valid use of a join point, would it? You cannot pass
 join-points in lambdas to arguments.

 But maybe that points to a solution. Can we somehow tell GHC that the
 argument of `runRW#` is special in the sense that passing a join-point
 call there is ok? So to say, a promise that by the time we generate code,
 the argument will be passed `n` functions and be used in a join-point
 eligible way?
