I'm beginning to think that the type hinting question is too closely related to
the dirty secrets of type juggling to resolve them separately. You may have to
either discard consistency, or else fix the problem of silent bizarre
conversions at the same time ('foo'==0, '123abc'=123). Fixing the conversions
is a BC break though.
