If you've got record/anyelement/anyarray support, you've probably pretty
much covered the bases.

Looking at the list (table 8-20), it strikes me that there's nothing
very pseudo about cstring anymore --- it could certainly be treated as
an ordinary datatype.  Not sure if there's any point in changing though.
