You've effectively taken a reference to the checknow function and
given it the name 'stat'. So when you call $stat(), I would expect it
to call checknow() with exactly those arguments. I don't know what
"$def with(checknow)" means, but if you figure out what checknow is
inside there, then you'll know whether you want any argument at all. I
suspect just "$stat()" may well do what you want.
