Not really leakage (if refcounts done right) but lifetimes extending 
beyond what is expected - i.e. if some instance of closure generated by 
the object is alive then the object is alive. If that's an issue, it can 
be improved by storing $this only for closures that actually use it 
(those messing with $$var will be in trouble).
