+  ** Octave can now optimize away the interpreter overhead of an anonymous function
+     handle, if the function simply calls another function or handle with some of its
+     parameters bound to certain values. Example:

+     When f is called, the call is forwarded to @sum with the constant 1 appended, and
+     the anonymous function call does not occur on the call stack.
