Cecil can be used to program in functional style, using closures and
read-only variables.  Vortex supports optimizations of these features and
we have considered having a front-end for ML (although have not actually
implemented it).
Does this answer your questions?  Please let us know about your
experiences with Cecil/Vortex.
