Using haxe ca3b272, the following haxe code:

package;

class Test {
    static function main():Void {
        inline function test() {
            var a = [];
            a.push(123);
            return a;
            }
        trace(test());
        }
    }

is compiled to:

var Test = function() { }

   Test.main = function() {
    console.log((function($this) {
        var $r;
        var a = [];
        a.push(123);
        $r = a;
        return $r;
    }(this)));
    }

Test.main();

"$r" is redundant. It can directly return "a" instead.

We are planning to remove the function($this) {} wrapper in Haxe 3, see issue #247
