Assigning a function reference to a nested function variable is hard

"is nested" means that the actual function passed can be either global or local. ISO Pascal style
function parameters are implicitely "is nested". The formal function reference for an "is nested"
function contains space for both a function address and a context pointer. The context pointer is
NIL if the actual function is declared global. For local functions, the context pointer typically
contains a dynamic link chain pointer, required to address variables in the actual link frame. For
object methods, the context pointer is the SELF pointer.
