That method has one temporary variable which holds the indirection vector 
containing the slots for the three variables the closure closes over.

"Any closed-over variable which does change after being closed over is put 
in a heap-allocated "indirection vector" (a simple array, one element per 
closed-over variable) and the indirection vector is copied into the 
closure. All accesses to the variable are made through the indirection 
vector." - http://www.mirandabanda.org/cogblog/2008/07/22/closures-part-ii-the-bytecodes/
