Comment (by rwbarton):
I think this is too optimistic. In general we can't analyze the argument
of `reify` in `g` to know that it refers only to `f`. Plus the `...` could
contain arbitrary code that could use functions in other packages that
reify arbitrary names.
I would say that both `f` and `g` can only refer to `h`.
