This is the kind of concerns that led me to be reluctant to recommend
this approach. We don't have a great way in most friend ends of "popping
up" and inserting a TYPE_DECL and that's a mechanism needed for this
sort of thing. I was surprised that such a simple change "worked", so
I'm not surprised that it really doesn't.
