hg: lambda/lambda/langtools: Non-static selectors in method refs, such as instance creation expressions, should be handled correctly (prepended to argument list).

[Paul Benedict]

Maurizio,

In the MethodReference10 example, main() has this call:
sortBy(c, new Foo()#getA);

Has there been any further thought to making parentheses mandatory?
sortBy(c, new Foo()#getA(Foo));

... that is, to facilitate the language extending to field references.
