Not sure whether I got your point, just what refman says:

The routine named by st must be visible, i.e. callable, at
the place where routine_id() is used to get the id number.
Indirect calls to the routine can appear earlier in the program
than the definition of the routine, but the id number can only
be obtained in code that comes after the definition of the routine.

I don't see why it should fail. But method like this:

s = parse(s)
if equal(s, "example") then
    example()
elsif ...

would be better for security reasons. But the "Execution of strings"
theme has been discussed many times on the list.
