I think the original example was passing `new Sub<>()` ? This fails in
javac, but, from what I understood from Tagir, Eclipse compiles it fine.
In my analysis (see my last email) I believe I showed this (the
inference issue, not the cast) to be a bug in the Eclipse compiler (of
course this area is tricky, so there might be something I missed).
Cheers
