 Within the block, the nested version of @<@ performs @>@ and this local version overrides the built-in @<@ so it is passed to @qsort@.
-Hence, programmers can easily form local environments, adding and modifying appropriate functions, to maximize reuse of other existing functions and types.

 It is also possible to use @ttype@ polymorphism to provide arbitrary argument forwarding functions. For example, it is possible to write @new@ as a library function:
 \begin{lstlisting}
-struct Pair(otype R, otype S);

 forall(otype R, otype S)
-void ?{}(Pair(R, S) *, R, S);  // (1)

 The @new@ function provides the combination of type-safe @malloc@ with a constructor call, so that it becomes impossible to forget to construct dynamically allocated objects. This function provides the type-safety of @new@ in \CC, without the need to specify the allocated type again, thanks to return-type inference.
 
-In the call to @new@, @Pair(double, char)@ is selected to match @T@, and @Params@ is expanded to match @[double, char]@. The constructor (1) may be specialized to  satisfy the assertion for a constructor with an interface compatible with @void ?{}(Pair(int, char) *, int, char)@.

-\TODO{Check if we actually can use ttype parameters on generic types (if they set the complete flag, it should work, or nearly so).}
