Tail calls of funs not optimized?

Calls to funs in the tail of a function will be rewritten by the
loader to make the calls tail-recursive.

In OTP 23 or earlier, call erts_debug:df(Mod) to produce a text file
named Mod.dis with the disassembled loaded instructions.

In the upcoming OTP 24 with the JIT enabled, start the runtime system
like this: "erl +asmdump" The generated assembly code for all loaded
modules will be listed in text files with the extension *.asm.
