The problem is that the current proposed hints/casts are deviating from the
type-hints that we are used to, therefore this particular feature should
(eventually) have an alternate syntax, whereas the strict hints would just
use `int`, `integer`, `string`, `float`, `bool`, `boolan` without
additional chars (assuming that we will get strict hints somewhen).
This will also reduce clashes with the current HHVM implementation.
