(* first argument is a function which performs a binding between a
   pretype reference and another pretype, updating some sort of environment
   (the 'a), returning the new alpha and a unit option, SOME () for a
   success, and a NONE, if not.

   To further complicate things, the bind argument also gets a copy of
   gen_unify to call, if it should choose.

(*
   [chase pty]  If pty is of the form (dom --> rng), once all necessary
   uvar references have been followed, returns rng.

   [rename_typvars avds pty]  Avoiding type variables with names from avds,
   renames Vartypes into uvar references.

   [has_unbound_uvar pty] Returns true if pty includes (after chasing bound
   uvars), any unbound uvars.

   [mk_fun_ty (dom,rng)] Makes the pretype corresponding to the function space
   from dom to rng.
