+
+Translating methods requires introducing guard expressions.  The signature
+provides an internal and an external type for the method.  The external type is
+the original declared type of the method, and is the signature which the method
+presents to external clients.  Because we implement covariant generics, clients
+may see an instantiation of this signature which will allow them to violate the
+contract expected by the implementation.  To handle this, we rewrite the method
+to match an internal signature which is in fact soundly covariant in the type
+parameters (that is, all contravariant type parameters are replaced with
+$\Dynamic$, and hence all remaining type parameters occur in properly covariant
+positions).  This property is enforced in the override checking relation: from
+the perspective of this relation, there is simply another internal type which
+defines how to wrap the method with guards.
+
+The translation insists that the internal and external types be function types
+of the appropriate arity, and that the external type is equal to the type of the
+declaration.  The declaration is translated using the underlying function
+definition translation, but is then wrapped with guards to enforce the type
+contract, producing a valid function of the internal (covariant) type.  The
+original body of the function is wrapped in a lambda function, which is applied
+using a dynamic call which checks that the arguments (which may have negative
+occurrences of type variables which are treated as $\Dynamic$ in the internal
+type) are appropriate for the actual body.  The original function returns a type
+$\tau_r$ which may be a super-type of the internal type (since negative
+occurrences of type variables must be treated as dynamic), and so we insert a
+check expression to guard against runtime type mismatches here.
+
+This is a very simplistic translation for now.  We could choose, in the case
+that the body returns a lambda, to push the checking down into the lambda
+(essentially wrapping it in place).

+
+For a method override, we require two coherence conditions.  As before, we
+require that the internal type $\tau$ be a subtype of the $\down{\sigma}$ where
+$\sigma$ is the external type.  Moreover, we also insist that the external type
+$\sigma$ be a subtype of the external type of the method in the superclass, and
+that the internal type $\tau$ be a subtype of the internal type in the
+superclass.  Note that it this last consistency property that ensures that
+covariant generics are ``poisonous'' in the sense that non-generic subclasses of
+generic classes must still have additional checks.  For example, a superclass
+with a method of external type $\sigma_s = \Arrow{T}{T}$ will have internal type
+$\tau_s = \Arrow{\Dynamic}{T}$.  A subclass of an instantiation of this class
+with $\Num$ can validly override this method with one of external type $\sigma =
+\Arrow{\Num}{\Num}$.  This is unsound in general since the argument occurrence
+of $T$ in $\sigma_s$ is contra-variant.  However, the additional consistency
+requirement is that the internal type of the subclass method must be a subtype
+of $\subst{\Num}{T}{\tau_s} = \Arrow{\Dynamic}{\Num}$.  This enforces the
+property that the overridden method must expect to be used at type
+$\Arrow{\Dynamic}{\Num}$, and hence must check its arguments (and potentially
+its return value as well in the higher-order case).  This checking code is
+inserted during the elaboration of class members above.
