I imagine the answer will involve lazy evaluation and require you use force()

I think you've got it;  I tried

junk<- vector("list",4)
for(i in 1:4) {
     junk[[i]]<- eval(bquote(function(x){42 + .(force(i))*x}))
}

and got the result that I wanted.  Still don't completely understand, but
it at least makes vague sense and makes me a bit more comfy.

I'm not so sure. The index in a for loop isn't supposed to be a promise. To me, it looks like a bug, maybe in bquote()...
