This is the right idea, but "at late as possible" is probably too vague to
satisfy folks.
I think the idea is that supplying x as a functional argument to remove-if,
mapc, etc. should work identically to supplying #'(lambda (&rest arguments)
(apply (if (functionp x) x (symbol-function x)) arguments))
