Summary: Inheriting native constructor with type parameters

Initial Comment:
This crashes the compiler 0.9.9:

It worked until I added the "toString() call in the last line.

package dfdl;

class Env extends HashMap<String, String> {}

Env makeEnv(List<(String, String)> initList) {
  return new Env(initList.listToMap());
}

void _test_makeEnv() {
  var env = makeEnv([("foo", "bar"), ("quux", "bar")]);
  println(env);
  assert(equals(env.toString(), "{foo=bar, quux=bar}"));
}

This bug has been fixed. The next release of the compiler will
include this correction. In the mean time, I encourage you try
the development version. It contains a version of the compiler
that fixes the bug. Please try it and reopen the bug-report if
you find any problem with it.

To know how to get an install the development version of the
compiler that fixes this bug, please read
http://nice.sf.net/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Dev/DevelopmentVersion

Note that the bug has first been fixed in the CVS version, and it
might take one or two hours until the development version
includes the fix.

Thanks again for your help by submiting this bug report.

OK, I understand what happens. The case where a parent
class, defined in Java, had a retyped constructor with type
parameters was not handled properly. I'm working on fixing
this...

So I thought. Now regardless of what I do with the toString it 
always crashes the compiler.

I'm pretty much blocked by this bug. I don't want to go 
replace Env in my source code with Map<String, String>, but 
that's the only workaround. 

So, in the scheme of priorities, this one is very important to 
me.

Thanks -mike beckerle
