Comment (by iampure at gmail.com):

 "BTW, is "critical" really appropriate for a profiling problem?"
 Yes, or any severity that provides an incentive to answer this relatively
 fast, since having a program that is supposed to be efficient that only
 generates closures, without me being able to see where they come from
 means a useless program.

 Now, in this case, I just had to read the documentation better: "for other
 closures it is a compiler-generated string identifying the closure."
