!   * Object is now recognized as a super-type of every type. This allows
!     easier use of Java libraries, creation of heterogeneous collections,
!     and type-safe handling of values with unknown types.
!   * Simplified some complex type in error messages.
!   * Safe dynamic type inference in presence of anonymous and local functions.
    * Reduced memory usage when repeatedly compiling in the same JVM (eclipse
      plugin, ant, testsuite, ...).
