[m-dev.] Abstract type classes.

Two points.

1. It seems we support abstract type classes, but I can't find
mention of it in the reference manual.

2. We currently disallow instance definitions for abstract types that
are defined as equivalence types.  Is there a reason why we could not
relax this so that we can allow such instance definitions provided
the type is also defined in the same module?
