Take any domain definition, say Integer.  You have

    Integer(): ...
     
and in the ... you have a reference to %.  That % designates the same
thing as Integer(), but most Spad compilers don't know that.  So one gets
to use silly `pretend' expressions to get around that -- with increased
potential of introducing plain bugs that the compiler cannot catch.  See
definition of reducedSystem in Integer.
