We should probably look into existing uses of the alias descriptor, to 
make sure we don't break any working code.  There are libraries out there 
that use it, and even debuggers, including GDB, might look at it (I'm 
talking from memory, so I might be gravely mistaken).

If there's some way of solving the modularity problem that won't even 
potentially break existing code, I think we should prefer it.
