If we check the bytecode for instanceof checks and type casts, using
ASM, we could insert a type check and a handler that throws a checked

Before we start adding a extra dependency to the solution, shouldn't we
study the impact of plain generics first?
No harm in studying the symptoms I suppose.
The worst problem is unchecked type casts, if someone can find a way of
checking them, then the symptoms go away.
Just to verify, we are talking about generics for a situation like this
are we?
public <T extends Entry> T get( T entry )
{
return (T) new Entry();
}
