alex-eg 578feb6b73 scope and promote the way C does
A `while' or `switch' body is a block with no `do' around it, and its
declarations landed in the enclosing frame. Two operands of one narrow
type skipped the conversions, so `(+ c c)' answered `char'.

;;; `_' as a type means "work it out from the initializer". What the
;;; pass can answer comes from declarations -- Sex writes a type at
;;; every binding site -- and from the signature of whatever a call
;;; names. A partial type like `(* _)' is solved by unifying what was
;;; written against what the initializer gives, so only the wildcard
;;; inside the spelling is filled in.
