I have been having discussion with Andrew about uses of anonymous

to cause troubles when doing binary diff during bootsrap because
we use random names to ensure uniqueness of names; but are we
still doing that?
We could have an option to take the compile time (and probably some
parts of the file path) out of the random number generator.
Why not hash the file name and line-number or something? Or add true
anonymous name spaces? Why do they require some sort of name?
