We may want someday to integrate the type into the flags struct to

the code faster, but probably only when using error checking).
I am even worried about the 4 bytes. That is still 50% overhead per
cons-cell. I have been thinking how to solve that. The best way IMHO
would be to allocate _all_ lisp types in frob-blocks (or slabs or
pools or...) _and_ then stick the typeinfo and a bitmap of type bits
at the start of the page.
