This method is also kind of inefficient, particularly if, as the doc says, it
can be called "once per ClassLoader per type".
I propose it be replaced with something like "final Class
getPrimitiveClass(char type)" where the char is one of the standard mappings
used in method signatures, eg 'B' for byte, 'I' for int, etc. Is there any
objection to that?
