Hi all,

Rhys Weatherly mentions how he fixed these issues in cscc at 
http://mailserver.di.unipi.it/pipermail/dotnet-sscli/msg00184.html.

If the syntax has to be changed, I vote the Hashtable<<int, string>> option 
better than any of the others mentioned. They are not too much of a depature 
from the c# syntax, and new users can learn it easily.
