I think clear() can be fixed if we remove the call to the constructor

agreed.
In fact ideally we'd obliterate all vptrs of the object, which might
be tricky. Ideas?
There's only one vptr, no?
One global (at the beginning of the object) plus one per implemented
interface.
Oh right, I forgot that's necessary to allow interfaces to be
single-pointer types. Hm.. that seems like such a waste... Too bad
interfaces can't be fat pointers.
For our purposes, you should only have to zero out the main vptr, since
that's where the destructor is. But to help increase the loudness of
errors on interface calls, you would have to zero out all the vptrs. Is
this difficult? If necessary, we can add a traits directive, right?
