   This indeed does look sweet.  Scheran (and I assume Ceran) has a bunch
   of silly $(CASE) ants that generate different code based on whether
   an arg/return type has a SPTR form or not that will just fade away.
   (Merely deriving that information was a pain!)  I like it.  As michael
   says, it allows us to concentrate on the semantics not the syntax.

I think I'm missing something.  How does Michael's proposal allow
Scheran to avoid using those ants?
