Thanks, Tom and Eli for the reviews. The patch is now in.

I see. I've noticed the same problem with Ada as well, but during
internal transformations (what we call type "fix"-ing), where we lose
information as we go - Eg, we lose the type's name, or the type of
the array index, etc. I've tried to fix things when they become
needed as well.
