I will be posting a more complete set of examples which demonstrates the 
issues I have later today, once I have trimmed them all down to proper 
size, but I should mention that I am not trying to use Java as an end-user 
here, but as the means to defining the core runtime data structures and
language primitives for use as the core vocabulary for a compiler that 
I am writing, which compiles another language to JVM.

Thank you for pointing out that boxing might not matter, though in all 
my experiences, it does.  I'll post actual code soon, though, to see whether 
this is just ignorance on my part.
