Let me quote aldorug.pdf section 14.6:

Record: Tuple Type -> Type
--------------------------
Records provide the basic updatable structure for aggregate data. Each
type argument to Record may be given in any of the following forms:
T or id : T or id : T == v.

That should explain it.

Why Record(Integer, Integer) does not work is probably a bug.

However, until now I haven't seen documented (for Aldor) any way that 
allows selection of an entry of a record with the type as the selector.
Actually, the bug above seems to suggest that it should work for 
different types.
