      I'm trying to do a compiler for a language that derives from Pascal
(Oberon).
      The problem is with the symbol table for types, because the types have to
be type-name compatible and not structured compatible, that makes a bit hard
to manipulate the builtin names,like CHAR, REAL, among others.
      I decided to create symbols that relate with them, but this solution is a
problem if the user decides to create an identifier with the same name that
a builtin symbol.
      Some help would be welcome.
