Regression test failures in type-annotations langtools test set

[Werner Dietl]

Hi Steve,

thanks for the input!

I just pushed a set of changes that should fix bug 7172567 and the
three failing test cases.
The other 6 failing tests are on our plate and will get addressed soon.

My changes might have broken a few other test cases that we will
resolve soon. Please do let me know whether the build works.

Thanks again and looking forward to working with you.
cu, WMD.
