Bug description

Full_Name: Ethan Aubin
Version: 3.08.1
OS: XP
Submission from: h000393e64fbb.ne.client2.attbi.com (65.96.37.11)

When programming with objects (but I suppose the same thing would apply to
modules), the error messages can be hard to read (e.g. when a 'class type dec
does not match' error stretches out over a few screens). Would you consider
printing out ellipses for the parts which match and then only text for the parts
which don't? Thanks - Ethan

Also, since I have the ear of an official caml rider, is there any plan to
implement type-slicing or guarded recursive data types?
