Right,

then I would do
  // helper fnc to create integers....
  Integer createKlangedIntegers(int i) {
        if (i >= -128 && i <= 127) {
            return new Integer(i);
        }
        return Integer.valueOf(i);
    }

And, btw,  even if you'll change the internal cache at cell 4, it
still would be immutable ;).
