[LLVMdev] questions about the type system rewrite

[Garrison Venn]

I know this is obvious, but one way to achieve a somewhat equivalent incremental
update mechanism, is to instead incrementally update a container. Once the
container is "finished", the structure type is manifested by setBody("ArrayRef ver. of 
container").

I was surprised how effortless my port from use of opaque to name struct types
was, although I guess this depends on one's milage.
