 I don't understand -- why is it not possible for the inferrer see that
 the first argument's type is int[] and the second's is (int ->
 string), then fill in T and U for mapArray?

+Not entirely sure (csc doesn't compile this code either), but my guess
+is that the reason is that the anonymous delegate's signature only
+contains T, but not U.  U is only used in the delegate's return type,
+but that's not part of the signature.
