Maybe a suggestion was simply missing :-)

To unpack all args sounds sane to me.

You too? *g*  My first implementation was like this:

  local function _bind(f, a, ...)
    return bind(function(...) return f(a, ...) end, ...)
  end 

  function bind(f, ...)
    if argn(...) == 0 then
      return f
    else
      return _bind(f, ...) end
  end 

But later on I made a C version part of baselib ;-)
