-- This is a tricky function, which is prone to create loops in the

--- create a new let binding with a function type. These other transformations
--- will just not work on those function-typed values at first, but the other
--- transformations (in particular β-reduction) should make sure that the type
--- of those values eventually becomes primitive.
