    How about sticking it into a table.

    local the_closures = {
        [0] = function(...) return func() end,
        [1] = function(...) return func( arg[1] ) end,
        etc...
    }

function closure(func,...)

    local my_closure = the_closures[ arg.n ] or function() assert( false )
end
    return my_closure( args )

end
